Select Directory

[ThiagoFiorilli]

In VLC, I select a directory using TOpenDialog. Is it possible to do this in Unigui projects?

Hi.

See files in Server (backend) (for example): 

 

For uploading files from client pls use TUniFileUpload  or buttonupload.

Or is it about something else?

Hello,

Okay. Client directory?

And what is it for?

It is possible to access local files (at the client), but not directly due to security reasons.

Only indirectly, through a server installed on the client computer - it could be a TCP server, FTP or HTTP.

In such a case, one needs to create and install the server, and make a custom directory listing routine.

Using HTTP, you can use CORS calls, that is call a local resource from the client, like a webserver on port 80 on localhost/127.0.0.1, using Javascript.

You can also run the call from the server, but then you have to go through the firewall at the client network.
