Hi xTexters,

I have been searching for a pretty long time, but it shouldn't be that complicated:

Having a Resource and therefore a platform URI, how can I get a list of all files in the same directory? I need it for an auto-import mechanism in the IScopeProvider.

Thanks!

If you have a platform resource URI, you can map it to an IFile:

* 2.44 How do I map between an EMF Resource and an Eclipse IFile?
<http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/EMF-FAQ#How_do_I_map_between_an_EMF_Resource_and_an_Eclipse_IFile.3F>

From that IFile, you can get the containing folder and determine all
the other files in that folder.
