hi, there is a problem in PathMatchSpecEx.
Documentiation says:
if more than one pattern is specified, separate them with semicolons and set the PMSF_MULTIPLE flag.
but Function is only working with comma - here are some c++ examples.
BOOL btest1 = PathMatchSpecEx(L"test.txt",L".jpg;.txt", PMSF_MULTIPLE); //-> not working
BOOL btest2 = PathMatchSpecEx(L"test.txt", L".jpg,.txt", PMSF_MULTIPLE); //-> working version with comma
PathMatchSpec - is working with semicolons but it is not mentioned to support multiple patterens
BOOL bbest3 = PathMatchSpec(L"test.txt", L".jpg;.txt"); //-> working
Regards, onur
jokers lost - correct samples are:
BOOL btest1 = PathMatchSpecEx(L"test.txt", L"*.jpg;*.txt", PMSF_MULTIPLE);
BOOL btest2 = PathMatchSpecEx(L"test.txt", L"*.jpg,*.txt", PMSF_MULTIPLE);
BOOL bbest3 = PathMatchSpec(L"test.txt", L"*.jpg;*.txt");
See the return value :
Return value
Type: HRESULT
Returns one of the following values.

thanks, my mistake - shame on me, i have overlooked.
thanks, onur
i was confused becouse PathMatchSpec returns BOOL

Indeed, it's not very logical...
