Hi I am trying to import a lot of files at one time but I am having max run out of memory (i think)
this is what i have for a command
Mydirectory =“E:\bg\0001”
filesarray = getfiles ( Mydirectory+ “\*.obj” )
for file in filesarray do
(
f = fopen file “rb” –open file in read only format
p = getFilenamePath file
Do import here (
)
fclose f
)
i seem to be able to import around 50 objects at a time like this but if i don’t do any importing max can list the files no problem
Have you tried a gc() after each or after a set number of imports?
Thanks that helped me a lot
is there an easy way to get the variable of a folder so the user can select a folder and its stored as a variable?
Also is it possible to recursively search in sub folders also?
Looks up external files in the help.
You will need a recursive function to get files from all sub folders.
