The component TFolderTree provides an easy-to-use directory tree of the available hard disk drives. The visual appearance of the tree can be controlled by several properties (colors, buttons, lines, and indentation). In order to provide a quick build-up of the directory tree even on very large file systems the component reads the folder structure only on demand (i.e. when the user opens a new branch of the tree).
The user may select a particular directory by clicking it. Further, several routines are available to create, delete and search for directories.
The unit FOLDERTREE is part of the SDL Component Suite.
