How to populate Listbox in GUI with all files from a folder.

6 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi Everybody, What I want is quite simple but I'm struggling tremendously trying to do it. I have a GUI with a 'Browse' button that I want the user to be able to click, choose a folder and then all the files in that folder are listed in the listbox. I seem to be able to get as far as browsing files by simply using the uigetdir syntax but when I select a folder it wont load to the listbox. Any ideas?
Cheers, Ellis

Hi Ellis,
let say you have one pushbutton and one listbox (tagged pushbutton1 and listbox1 with GUIDE).
in the callback of your pushbutton, you should do something like :
function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% get the folder
folder_name = uigetdir;
% get what is inside the folder
Infolder = dir(folder_name);
% Initialize the cell of string that will be update in the list box
MyListOfFiles = [];
% Loop on every element in the folder and update the list
for i = 1:length(Infolder)
if Infolder(i).isdir==0
MyListOfFiles{end+1,1} = Infolder(i).name;
end
end
% update the listbox with the result
set(handles.listbox1,'String',MyListOfFiles)
That should do it

Less chances for creating a bug by a typo :-) And no warnings for a missing pre-allocation.
