RE: Read stream files by data/time?

How are you judging redundancy ?

Surely not just date and time.

Are you looking at the contents of the file or do they have special prefixes ?

subject: Read stream files by data/time?

Is there an API that will process all stream files within a dir by date/time?


I'm inheriting a number of PDF files (about 625k) from our Windows team. I need to catalogue and remove redundant files. I'm thinking that if I can read the files in descending order by date/time, I can keep the first file and just delete future redundant files.
