Description

result = dir(p) lists the directory contents of the home directory of the SoC board connected.

result = dir(p,path) lists the directory contents of the specified path on the SoC board connected.

Examples

List Directory Contents of SoC Board Folder

List directory contents of a folder on a specified SoC board.

Create a Xilinx^® processor hardware object and connect to the processor on-board the Xilinx SoC board.​

p = xilinxsoc('192.168.1.101', 'root', 'root');

Use the dir function to list the directory contents of the Documents folder located in your home directory.

result = dir(p, 'Documents')

result = 

  1×3 struct array with fields:

    name
    folder
    isdir
    bytes

Input Arguments

p — Connection to processor on SoC board

xilinxsoc object | intelsoc object

Hardware processor object that represents the connection from MATLAB^® to the processor on a specific SoC hardware board, specified as a xilinxsoc object or intelsoc object.

path — Path to a file or folder

character vector | string scalar

Path and name of file on the SoC board that you want the directory content listed for. You can use either the absolute path or the relative path from the home directory.

If no path is specified, your home directory is used.
