is there any kotlin specific method to retrieve file with wildcard strings? Or I should just refer to the java ones?

There are nice

Path

extensions that you can use with glob patterns. For instance: https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.io.path/java.nio.file.-path/list-directory-entries.html https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.io.path/java.nio.file.-path/for-each-directory-entry.html https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.io.path/java.nio.file.-path/use-directory-entries.html (depending on what you want to do with it)

simple patterns such as

*.c

or

**

, thanks

Why would you need

File

though? For

File

you actually might have Java equivalents, or you can just

toPath()

😄

I start from that.. yeah I know
