How to get files from path

I am sharing today a method which can help you get files in a particular path.

static container findMatchingFiles(
        str _folderPath
    ,   str _filePattern   = '*.jpg*')
{
    System.IO.DirectoryInfo     directory;
    System.IO.FileInfo[]        files;
    System.IO.FileInfo          file;
    InteropPermission           permission;
    container                   fileTypes;
    Counter                     counter = 1;

    str         fileName;
    counter     filesCount;
    counter     loop;
    container   mathchingFiles;
    ;

    permission  = new InteropPermission(InteropKind::ClrInterop);
    permission.assert();

    directory   = new System.IO.DirectoryInfo(_folderPath);

    files       = directory.GetFiles(_filePattern);
    filesCount  = files.get_Length();

    fileTypes   = ['*.bmp*','*.jpeg*','*.gif*','*.jpg*','*.png*'];
    while(filesCount == 0 &&  counter <= conLen(fileTypes))
    {
        _filePattern = conPeek(fileTypes,counter);
        files       = directory.GetFiles(_filePattern);
        filesCount  = files.get_Length();
        counter++;
    }


    for (loop = 0; loop < filesCount; loop++)
    {
        file            = files.GetValue(loop);
        fileName        = file.get_FullName();
        mathchingFiles  = conins(mathchingFiles, conlen(mathchingFiles) + 1, fileName);
    }

    CodeAccessPermission::revertAssert();

    return mathchingFiles;
}

Reading images and displaying on report

To display images on a SSRS report in AX we can use below code.

Sometimes we need to show images on SSRS reports, for that purpose we can use below code to fetch the image from a table field as assign to the TmpTable used in SSRS report.

Replace <Table.Field> with your  table name and field name

imagePath = conPeek(PackingSlipReportDP::findMatchingFiles(<Table.Field>,'*.jpg*'),1);
            new FileIOPermission(imagePath,'r').assert();
            if ( WinAPI::fileExists(imagePath))
            {
                binData.loadFile(imagePath);
                logoContainer = binData.getData();
           
                <Table.Field>= logoContainer;
            }
            CodeAccessPermission::revertAssert();
