Windows – List of recently changed files for a directory and all subdirectories

you could do this:

for /r %i in (*.jar) do echo  %~ti %~zi %i 

which will iterate over all dirs (including the current one) and echos out the *.jar names. It will also echo out the echo command, so you may want to pipe the output to a file:

for /r %i in (*.jar) do echo %~ti %~zi %i >> myJars.txt

or put it in a bat:

@echo off
for /r %%i in (*.jar) do echo %%~ti %%~zi %%i

note the double %'s in the .bat version.

If you're still interested in a scripted solution, I've quickly thrown something together which will display files from all directories together:

#!C:/Perl/bin/perl.exe
use File::Find;

my %files = ();

sub process
{
    $files{$_} = (stat($_))[9] unless -d $_;
}

find (\&process, $ARGV[0]);

foreach my $key(sort {$files{$b} <=> $files{$a}} keys %files)
{
    print "$key\n";
}

Files are displayed newest to oldest, showing only the file name. This way you can easily pipe the output of this script to another tool for processing without having to worry about stripping excess output.

Usage: perl find.pl <starting_directory>
