access to directory structures and their contents in a platform-independent way. +<p> + +<p> A TQDir is used to manipulate path names, access information +regarding paths and files, and manipulate the underlying file +system. +<p> A TQDir can point to a file using either a relative or an absolute +path. Absolute paths begin with the directory separator "/" +(optionally preceded by a drive specification under Windows). If +you always use "/" as a directory separator, TQt will translate +your paths to conform to the underlying operating system. Relative +file names begin with a directory name or a file name and specify +a path relative to the current directory. +<p> The "current" path refers to the application's working directory. +A TQDir's own path is set and retrieved with <a href="#setPath">setPath</a>() and <a href="#path">path</a>(). +<p> An example of an absolute path is the string "/tmp/quartz", a +relative path might look like "src/fatlib". You can use the +function <a href="#isRelative">isRelative</a>() to check if a TQDir is using a relative or an +absolute file path. Call <a href="#convertToAbs">convertToAbs</a>() to convert a relative TQDir +to an absolute one. For a simplified path use <a href="#cleanDirPath">cleanDirPath</a>(). To +obtain a path which has no symbolic links or redundant ".." +elements use <a href="#canonicalPath">canonicalPath</a>(). The path can be set with setPath(), +and changed with <a href="#cd">cd</a>() and <a href="#cdUp">cdUp</a>(). +<p> TQDir provides several static functions, for example, <a href="#setCurrent">setCurrent</a>() +to set the application's working directory and <a href="#currentDirPath">currentDirPath</a>() to +retrieve the application's working directory. Access to some +common paths is provided with the static functions, <a href="#current">current</a>(), +<a href="#home">home</a>() and <a href="#root">root</a>() which return TQDir objects or currentDirPath(), +<a href="#homeDirPath">homeDirPath</a>() and <a href="#rootDirPath">rootDirPath</a>() which return the path as a string. +If you want to know about your application's path use +<a href="ntqapplication.html#applicationDirPath">TQApplication::applicationDirPath</a>(). +<p> The number of entries in a directory is returned by <a href="#count">count</a>(). +Obtain a string list of the names of all the files and directories +in a directory with <a href="#entryList">entryList</a>(). If you prefer a list of <a href="ntqfileinfo.html">TQFileInfo</a> +pointers use <a href="#entryInfoList">entryInfoList</a>(). Both these functions can apply a +name filter, an attributes filter (e.g. read-only, files not +directories, etc.), and a sort order. The filters and sort may be +set with calls to <a href="#setNameFilter">setNameFilter</a>(), <a href="#setFilter">setFilter</a>() and <a href="#setSorting">setSorting</a>(). +They may also be specified in the entryList() and +entryInfoList()'s arguments. +<p> Create a new directory with <a href="#mkdir">mkdir</a>(), rename a directory with +<a href="#rename">rename</a>() and remove an existing directory with <a href="#rmdir">rmdir</a>(). Remove a +file with <a href="#remove">remove</a>(). You can interrogate a directory with <a href="#exists">exists</a>(), +<a href="#isReadable">isReadable</a>() and <a href="#isRoot">isRoot</a>(). +<p> To get a path with a filename use <a href="#filePath">filePath</a>(), and to get a +directory name use <a href="#dirName">dirName</a>(); neither of these functions checks +for the existence of the file or directory. +<p> The list of root directories is provided by <a href="#drives">drives</a>(); on Unix +systems this returns a list containing one root directory, "/"; on +Windows the list will usually contain "C:/", and possibly "D:/", +etc. +<p> It is easiest to work with "/" separators in TQt code. If you need +to present a path to the user or need a path in a form suitable +for a function in the underlying operating system use +<a href="#convertSeparators">convertSeparators</a>(). +<p> Examples: +<p> See if a directory exists. +<pre> + TQDir d( "example" ); // "./example" + if ( !d.<a href="#exists">exists</a>() ) + <a href="ntqapplication.html#qWarning">qWarning</a>( "Cannot find the example directory" ); + </pre> + +<p> Traversing directories and reading a file. +<pre> + TQDir d = TQDir::<a href="#root">root</a>(); // "/" + if ( !d.<a href="#cd">cd</a>("tmp") ) { // "/tmp" + <a href="ntqapplication.html#qWarning">qWarning</a>( "Cannot find the \"/tmp\" directory" ); + } else { + <a href="ntqfile.html">TQFile</a> f( d.<a href="#filePath">filePath</a>("ex1.txt") ); // "/tmp/ex1.txt" + if ( !f.<a href="ntqfile.html#open">open</a>(IO_ReadWrite) ) + <a href="ntqapplication.html#qWarning">qWarning</a>( "Cannot create the file %s", f.<a href="ntqfile.html#name">name</a>() ); + } + </pre> + +<p> A program that lists all the files in the current directory +(excluding symbolic links), sorted by size, smallest first: +<pre> + #include <stdio.h> + #include <<a href="qdir-h.html">ntqdir.h</a>> + + int main( int argc, char **argv ) + { + TQDir d; + d.<a href="#setFilter">setFilter</a>( TQDir::<a href="#FilterSpec-enum">Files</a> | TQDir::<a href="#FilterSpec-enum">Hidden</a> | TQDir::<a href="#FilterSpec-enum">NoSymLinks</a> ); + d.<a href="#setSorting">setSorting</a>( TQDir::<a href="#SortSpec-enum">Size</a> | TQDir::<a href="#SortSpec-enum">Reversed</a> ); + + const TQFileInfoList *list = d.<a href="#entryInfoList">entryInfoList</a>(); + TQFileInfoListIterator it( *list ); + <a href="ntqfileinfo.html">TQFileInfo</a> *fi; + + printf( " Bytes Filename\n" ); + while ( (fi = it.current()) != 0 ) { + printf( "%10li %s\n", fi-><a href="ntqfileinfo.html#size">size</a>(), fi-><a href="ntqfileinfo.html#fileName">fileName</a>().latin1() ); + ++it; + } + return 0; + } + </pre> + +<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqapplication.html#applicationDirPath">TQApplication::applicationDirPath</a>() and <a href="io.html">Input/Output and Networking</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="FilterSpec-enum"></a>TQDir::FilterSpec</h3> + +<p> This enum describes the filtering options available to TQDir, e.g. +for <a href="#entryList">entryList</a>() and <a href="#entryInfoList">entryInfoList</a>().

(See <a href="ntqregexp.html#wildcard-matching">TQRegExp wildcard matching</a>.) You may specify several filter +entries all separated by a single space " " or by a semi-colon +";". +<p> For example, if you want entryList() and entryInfoList() to list +all files ending with either ".cpp" or ".h", you would use either +dir.<a href="#setNameFilter">setNameFilter</a>("*.cpp *.h") or dir.setNameFilter("*.cpp;*.h"). +<p> <p>See also <a href="#nameFilter">nameFilter</a>() and <a href="#setFilter">setFilter</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setPath"></a>TQDir::setPath ( const <a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a> & path )<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +Sets the path of the directory to <em>path</em>. The path is cleaned of +redundant ".", ".." and of multiple separators. No check is made +to ensure that a directory with this path exists. +<p> The path can be either absolute or relative.

Relative file names begin with a +directory name or a file name and specify a path relative to the +current directory.
