WP7 Isolated Storage

I'm trying to grab my files from isolated storage but unfortunatly it is pulling in all the files not just the specified ones from the pattern.

I'm using:

foreach (string fileName in storage.GetFileNames("*.item"))

Is this a known bug or am I just doing something wrong?

PS. The use of wildcards is essential

Any help very much apprieciated,

Thanks!

This API bug has been fixed in the release of the Windows Phone 7.1 SDK (Otherwise known as the "Mango" release).

Your code will work fine now.

This is a known issue. You'll need to either structure your files into folders if you want to limit what's retrieved or test/filter the filenames before loading them.

Looks like a bug in the CTP/Beta versions of IsolatedStorageFile.GetFileNames(string pattern)...

I'm not sure why it is not working. But you can try this one as well:

storage.GetFileNames().Select(fileName => fileName.EndsWith("item"));
