FileBoolean - DirectoryName
Select all the directories that have a name which matches the
STRING, and in these selected directories select all files and all subdirectories.
The string may contain wildcard characters "*" (zero or more characters)
or "?" (a single character).
- This boolean is similar to the
DirectoryPath
boolean, but is somewhat faster because it only looks at directory names, not their
full paths.
- The STRING should not contains slashes or backslashes. It is compared
with the name of all the directories, and directory names do not contain slashes or
backslashes.
- The function looks at all the hard link filenames of items (an item may
have 2 or more names, totally different and even in different directories, but
all referring to the same data).
The logfile will show whatever name happens to be first, so it may appear as
if the function has selected some wrong items.
The function does not follow soft links.
