DirectoryEntry Constructor (String)
.NET Framework 4
Initializes a new instance of the DirectoryEntry class that binds this instance to the node in Active Directory Domain Services located at the specified path.
Assembly: System.DirectoryServices (in System.DirectoryServices.dll)
The following example binds a DirectoryEntry object to the directory entry at the specified path, and displays the Path property of each child entry that is specified by the node's Children property.
public class PrintChildren{ public static void Main(String[] args) { DirectoryEntry objDE; String strPath="LDAP://DC=onecity,DC=corp,DC=fabrikam,DC=com"; if(args.Length>0)strPath=args[1]; // Create a new DirectoryEntry with the given path. objDE=new DirectoryEntry(strPath); foreach(DirectoryEntry objChildDE in objDE.Children) Console.WriteLine(objChildDE.Path); } }
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
Typo in the example
The arguments reference should be to element 0, not 1 - in C# it should read
if (args.Length > 0) strPath = args[0];
