Hi all,
I have the following code to traverse a directory structure from a given
path:
import os, fnmatch, re
folders = []
r = re.compile(r'file_filter') # msn_username is passed by the user
def browse(junk, dirpath, namelist):
for name in namelist:
if r.search(name):
folders.append(os.path.join(dirpath, name))
userbase = os.environ['USERPROFILE']
# change directory to user profile folder
os.chdir(userbase)
os.path.walk(os.getcwd(), browse, None)
Now with the sample above I need global variables ("folders") to keep track
of the directories traversed. Ideally I'd like to either have the browse
function return a value that I could use or I'd like the ability to pass on
arguments to the browse function, which I can't seem to be able to.
Any help would be appreciated.
Chrs
j.
