Using Static Methods

System.IO.SafeTraversal v2.0.0

If you don't want to instantiate SafeTraversal class, you can use the static methods version by invoking SafeTraversal.GetFiles(...) or SafeTraversal.GetDirectories(...). The usage is the same as instance version.

1. Reference all the required namespaces.

using System.IO;
using static System.Console;
//For .NET Framework
using System.IO.SafeTraversal;
//For .NET Core
using System.IO.SafeTraversal.Core;

2. Call GetFiles or GetDirectories method

IEnumerable<string> result1 = SafeTraversal.GetFiles("D:\\ebook", SearchOption.AllDirectories, x => x.Name.ToLower().Contains("csharp"));
//or
IEnumerable<FileInfo> result1 = SafeTraversal.GetFiles(new DirectoryInfo("D:\\ebook"), SearchOption.AllDirectories, x => x.Name.ToLower().Contains("csharp"));


IEnumerable<string> result2 = SafeTraversal.GetDirectories(@"C:\windows\system32", SearchOption.AllDirectories, FileAttributes.Directory | FileAttributes.Hidden);
//or
IEnumerable<DirectoryInfo> result2 = SafeTraversal.GetDirectories(new DirectoryInfo(@"C:\windows\system32"), SearchOption.AllDirectories, FileAttributes.Directory | FileAttributes.Hidden);
