thanks..
this was the way I found it to work.. any suggestions on how to make it
smaller/ not that memory intense? I will move the code to it's own
bool VerifyFileType(entry_ref *ref, char *type) function. How do I make
char *type that can be more than 1 parameter? I want to send both "audio",
"video" and perhaps other super types? But this works nicely :)
refsReceivedMessage are a BMessage and can have one file or allot of
files. Are hosted in src/apps/mediaplayer/playlist/Playlist.cpp around
line 278
entry_ref ref;
BFile *file;
BNodeInfo *nodeinfo;
BMimeType* mimetype, temp;
char str[10];
for (int i = 0; refsReceivedMessage->FindRef("refs", i, &ref) == B_OK; i++){
file = new BFile(&ref, B_READ_ONLY);
nodeinfo = new BNodeInfo(file);
if(nodeinfo->GetType(str) == B_OK){
mimetype = new BMimeType(str);
if(mimetype->GetSupertype(&temp) == B_OK){
if(temp == "audio" || temp == "video")
AppendToPlaylistRecursive(ref, playlist);
}
}
}
