The AttributeFilter class can be used to filter files and folders according to their attributes. The attributes are specified by using the FileAttributes enumeration.

Demonstration

Process all files that have the read-only attribute.

VB.NET	Copy Code
Dim files As AbstractFile() = myFolder.GetFiles( True, _                                            New AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly ) )

C#	Copy Code
AbstractFile[] files = myFolder.GetFiles( true,                                      new AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly ) );

Process all files that have both the read-only and the hidden attribute.

VB.NET	Copy Code
Dim files As AbstractFile() = myFolder.GetFiles( True, _                                      New AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly ), _                                      New AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden ) )

C#	Copy Code
AbstractFile[] files = myFolder.GetFiles( true,                               new AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly ),                                new AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden ) );

Process all files that have either the read-only or hidden attribute.

VB.NET	Copy Code
Dim files As AbstractFile() = myFolder.GetFiles( True, _               New AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly|System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden ) )

C#	Copy Code
AbstractFile[] files = myFolder.GetFiles( true,             new AttributeFilter( System.IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly|System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden ) );

The pipe (|) used in the constructor of the AttributeFilter class serves the same purpose as an OrFilter class.
