[fpc-pascal]directory tree in memory

[Ivan Montes]

Hi,

Maybe it's a bit off-topic, sorry for any incovenience.

In my library I need to have a repressentation of a directorty tree in memory, to search for files etc.
I'm using a tList like this :

pMyDirsItem = ^mydirsitem;
myDirsItem =RECORD
  info :tFileInfo; //name, size, time/date ...
  sub :tList;
end;

myDirs :tList;

What I do is store the file/directory name and the like in DirsItem.info and if it's a directory "sub" points to another tList with the contents of that directory.
It works but I would like to know if someone have a better solution for this problem. I'm not very happy with the performance when I have to find a file in it.

thanks, Ivan
