Checking if a SPFolder Exists

Posted by mundeep on February 24, 2009

Ran into a colleague’s code that was incorrectly trying to check if a folder existed. It was something like:

1	private bool CheckFolderExists(SPWeb parentWeb, string folderName) {

2	SPFolder folder = parentWeb.GetFolder(folderName);

3	if (folder == null) {

4	return false;

5

}

6

else {

7	return true;

8

}

9

}

however this always returns an actual SPFolder object, and the correct way is to check the Exists property of the returned object ie:

view source

print?

1	private bool CheckFolderExists(SPWeb parentWeb, string folderName) {

2	SPFolder folder = parentWeb.GetFolder(folderName);

3	return folder.Exists;

4

}

NB: Yes, this post is almost identical to my earlier one about checking if an SPWeb object exists.
