I've begin fiddning with writing a plugin now and got lost when trying to add/delete files in the playlist.
The most logical functioncall i can find is
play_control::command( play_control::PLAYLIST_ADDFILES, <something> );
but this only shows a add files dialog. how to do it?

i tried to find out what the different functions actually do but as the parameter always is cast to int and the code for unmangling the parameters is hidden in the core (i think) i cant find out.

thanks :))

Check out playlist_oper. It's probably what you're looking for.

Check out playlist_oper. It's probably what you're looking for.

This is what I use in foo_uftS (code stolen from DanZ):

CODE

class addFilesCallback : public playlist_loader_callback
{
virtual void on_entry(const playlist_entry *src)
{
metadb_handle_list list;
list.add_item(metadb::get()->handle_create(src));
playlist_oper::get()->add_items(list);
list.delete_all();
}
};

static addFilesCallback afCallback;

...

playlist_loader::process_path(string_utf8_from_os(filename), &afCallback);

Works with both single files and directories.
