method	Files	MBS Util Plugin	8.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	All

Creates a folderitem for the item with the given index.

Returns nil on any error.
The reason why you use this class is to avoid makeing folderitems which is slow, so don't use this function too often. e.g. good if you just take 5 folderitems for 20000 files by filtering.

TrueItem will use GetTrueFolderItem so the link/alias files are not resolved by Xojo.
Due to bugs in Xojo, you may still get alias resolved.

Some examples using this method:

• /Util/FileList/FileList Benchmark
• /Util/FileList/FileList Listbox
• /Util/FileList/FileList Recursive
• /Util/FileList/Koingo FileList Example
