Folder Read Order

[ScottCov]

I have a few hundred folders with Pdfs. What determines the order fscrawler works thru the folders? For instance, when I start indexing for the first time or reindex using --restart, It always begins with folder 20-34966, even though this isn't the highest/lowest sequentially nor is it the earliest or latest date?

I have no idea.

It's the way Java is returning the files.

File[] files = new File(dir).listFiles(file -> {
    if (fsSettings.getFs().isFollowSymlinks()) return true;
    return !Files.isSymbolicLink(file.toPath());
});

But that could be a nice addition to fetch the content ordered by the newest content first...
Would you like to open an issue?

It was more a matter of curiosity
