LSL.PathTraversal

This library provides a static method for enumerating up a directory hierarchy from a given initial path or the current directory if no initial path is provided.

Locating a file in the hierarchy

The following example attempts to locate a file in the hierarchy, starting from the value of Directory.GetCurrentDirectory():

// Necessary usings: using LSL.PathTraversal; ... var fileInfo = TraversePath.Enumerate() // GetFileInfo is an extension method to the DirectoryInfo class .Select(directoryInfo => directoryInfo.GetFileInfo(filename)) .FirstOrDefault(fileInfo => fileInfo.Exists) // If the file was found then fileInfo will provide all information // otherwise fileInfo will be null
