Enumeration Type Documentation

enum wxDirFlags

These flags affect the behaviour of GetFirst/GetNext() and Traverse(), determining what types are included in the list of items they produce.

Enumerator
wxDIR_FILES 

Includes files.

wxDIR_DIRS 

Includes directories.

wxDIR_HIDDEN 

Includes hidden files.

wxDIR_DOTDOT 

Includes "." and "..".

wxDIR_NO_FOLLOW 

Don't follow symbolic links during the directory traversal.

This flag is ignored under systems not supporting symbolic links (i.e. non-Unix ones).

Notice that this flag is not included in wxDIR_DEFAULT and so the default behaviour of wxDir::Traverse() is to follow symbolic links, even if they lead outside of the directory being traversed.

Since
2.9.5
wxDIR_DEFAULT 

Default directory traversal flags include both files and directories, even hidden.

Notice that by default wxDIR_NO_FOLLOW is not included, meaning that symbolic links are followed by default. If this is not desired, you must pass that flag explicitly.

Possible return values of wxDirTraverser callback functions.

Enumerator
wxDIR_IGNORE 

Ignore this directory but continue with others.

wxDIR_STOP 

Stop traversing.

wxDIR_CONTINUE 

Continue into this directory.
