Delete files from multiple paths

[PauldePaor]

On my block diagram I have an input path which leads to a case structure that is controlled by radio buttons. The outside case structure will turn to true ater a user selected time period. I am now adding an additional path of images that need to be deleted or moved. 

I need to now add the image path to this case structure also but it also needs to go through the same file age parameters from the get file info vi. I have tried using the build array function but it did not work to append the filenames.

Option 1: create a subVI with all of the file age logic and then call that subVI for all file paths that need it.

Option 2: Use Build Array and put the file age logic in a FOR loop that will autoindex on the path array

What would the sub Vi look like?

[crossrulz]

Basically a List Folder with your FOR loop.  Have an error in and error out and the path input on the connector pane.

How will this work for the output as it links to the case selector after a comparison function on the file age to the system time?

[crossrulz · Accepted solution]

The comparison is inside of the FOR loop that will be part of the subVI.

So your top level VI should look something like this

Thanks very much for your help crossrulz

The drag and drop of the code snippet isnt working could you please upload it as a Vi?
