Examples

Check if File-set Object has More Files

Create a file-set object, check if the file-set object has any files, and then read the data iteratively.

Create a file-set object for all the .mat files in the demos folder.

folder = fullfile(matlabroot,'toolbox','matlab','demos');
fs = matlab.io.datastore.DsFileSet(folder,...
                 'IncludeSubfolders',true,...
                 'FileExtensions','.mat');

Use the hasfile method to check if the file-set object has more files to read. Get the file information, one file at a time, while files remain in the file-set object.

while hasfile(fs)
   file = nextfile(fs);
end
