listfiles
Overview of the listfiles function.
function listfiles(path: string): { string }Errors:
Illegal Path
The path provided is considered 'unsafe'.
Remarks
Whilst it may seem that listfilesimplies that only files will be enumerated, in reality, both files and folders will be enumerated.
High-Level Overview:
The listfiles function follows the already defined UNC specification; it will return all the folders found at the provided path.
Low-Level Overview:
pathis read from the luau heap, then utilising std::filesystem::is_directorywe validate if the provided path (once sanitised) is pointing to a valid folder in the filesystem; if it is, then we use an std::filesystem::directory_iterator. and push the paths of the files found to the array that is returned.
