Files macro parameter

Hi
Does the macro_parameter @v"Files" result in a list of the full paths including the names or just the names?

Full path.

Note: this macro only works for file watches having specific file names referenced in the watch list. If you use file masks in the watch lists, use DirEx within the job script or notification script to find which files have names matching the watch mask.

So if using a mask the mask itself will turn up in @v"files"? Or what it resolved to?

I guess the macro will simply return an empty string as there are no specific files that triggered the action. The event is not triggered by a specific file, the event is triggered by the system indicating that there are some files that much the mask, which could be a single file, or could be many files.

Sorry thats not quite what I was getting at; if I use a mask in the file watch ie c:\*.txt and that triggers the job will the @V"files" parameter read *.txt or file.txt, filetwo.txt?

If it's the latter then it's difficult to use the direx parameter.

Neither. My testing shows that it returns an empty string.. If you need the actual file name with path, you can use DirEx."c:\\*.txt", var_files
