Jesus CASTILLO commented on CAMEL-3894:
---------------------------------------
I like the find command as we can build complex searches with a few options.
Both mindepth and maxdepth allows us to limit the search when traversing the
directories tree. So, both are important although I think that maxdepth is more
frequently used. In addition, I think wee need a filter that supports find
style searches. I am running some test to locate all the Outbox folders in the
following structure:
{code}
repositories
+ repo1
+ users
+ user1
+ Incoming
+ Inbox
+ Outbox
+ Sent Files
+ Deleted Files
+ user2
...
+ userN
+ repo2
...
+ repoM
{code}
but it's hard to implement it efficiently using only the Ant filter. This could
be easily done with a find command as:
{code}
find ./repositories -mindepth 4 -maxdepth 4 -type d -name Outbox
{code}
A find-like filter could have support for filetype (directory/file), filter
with times (mtime, ctime, etc), permissions, etc.

> It would be great if the File component adds support for the maxdepth option
> just like the find command does, so we can prune the recursive directory
> search when recursive is enabled.
> With maxdepth we can set the levels of Directories to descend during the
> pollDirectory function.
