member this.FindInFiles : string * string * bool * Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.SearchOption -> System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection<string>
Public Function FindInFiles (directory As String, containsText As String, ignoreCase As Boolean, searchType As SearchOption) As ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)

Parameters

directory
String

The directory to be searched.
