Generate computer directory using ColdFusion

Question

• MyDocument
• etc...

Thanks in advance

Edit: First of all thanks to everybody that responded. I just give some more clarification about my question. I want display my computer's root directory. Suppose I have some documents to save in my PC. I don't know where I save that doc. In a CF page I want to display

• C:/
• D:/
• E:/

I want to display the above directory names dynamically generated through Java or CF. I think now my question is clear to everybody. Thanks to all.

Answer 1

Below code may help you

<cfdirectory action="list" directory="#ExpandPath('.')#" name="myFiles">

<cfform name="myform" action="" method="post">
    <cftree name="dirBrowse">
        <cftreeitem query="myFiles" value="name">
    </cftree>
</cfform>

Answer 2

Use cfdirectory.

For example:

<cfdirectory action="list" directory="C:/" name="DirectoryQuery" />

<cfdump var=#DirectoryQuery# />

That will dump a list of the directories and files in the server's C drive, and acts like a standard database query.

To get multiple directories into the same query variable, you can get two lists and a "Query of Queries" to merge them:

<cfdirectory action="list" directory="C:/" name="FirstDirQuery" />
<cfdirectory action="list" directory="D:/" name="SecondDirQuery" />

<cfquery name="DirectoryQuery" dbtype="Query">
    SELECT * FROM FirstDirQuery
    UNION
    SELECT * FROM SecondDirQuery
</cfquery>

<cfdump var=#DirectoryQuery# />
