FINDDIR (UDC) 

The FINDDIR UDC executes the LISTFILE command to search for a directory.


NOTE  System-defined UDCs are not automatically available.  Your System
      Manager must use the SETCATALOG command to make these UDCs
      available for your use.  For example:

           SETCATALOG HPPXUDC.PUB.SYS;SYSTEM;APPEND 


Syntax 

FINDDIR [[DIR=]dir_name] [[START=]start_dir]

Parameters 

Refer to the LISTFILE command for a complete explanation of the
parameters used with the FINDDIR UDC. The following parameters are
supported with the FINDDIR UDC.

dir_name              A simple directory name, including wildcards.  The
                      dir_name is case insensitive.  It cannot be a
                      pathname.  For example, abc, @bc, and [A-M]_@ are
                      valid dir_names; while /ABC/, ./Mydir, and ABC.GRP
                      are not valid dir_names.  The dir_name is optional
                      and defaults to @.

start_dir             The name of the directory where the search is to
                      begin.  For example, /SYS/PUB. The default starting
                      directory is the root directory (/).

Operation Notes 

The FINDDIR UDC finds all directories matching dir_name, with the search
beginning at start_dir.

The UDC executes the following form of the LISTFILE command:

     LISTFILE start_dir ,6 ;SELEQ=[OBJECT=DIR] ;NAME=dir_name ;TREE

Use 

This UDC may be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in BREAK.
Pressing Break aborts execution.

Examples 

Refer to the LISTFILE command later in this chapter for examples.
