Visual C++: File or Folder?
-
Hi, In Visual C++, if you create a file using CFile, is there any way to tell whether this file is a file or a folder? In Java, you can use "isDirectory()" to do this. Is there a similar way in Visual C++? Thanks. Or is there any other way to create a file? Any suggestion or comment is appreciated. Also, when using CFileDialog, all the folders and files will be displayed for you to select. Is there any way to only allow folders to show up? Thanks.

The folder-selection dialog is done with the SHBrowseForFolder() API. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ All your base are belong to ME~!

Try CFileFind::IsDirectory :cool: By the way, Doesn't CFile always create a file? I have never tried creating a folder. Can CFile do that? Ammar
Sorry if I asked not good question. I am relatively new to Visual C++. I tried the CfileFind class. It seems that this the right one. But I still have some problems. The following is the code I tried. It works ok to find the specific file or directory. But when I tried to test whether this is a directory or not, it gives an "assertion failure". I have no idea how it happenes. Can you tell me what went wrong? Also, if possible, can you give me a little example (several lines) of how this may work? Thanks a lot. CFileFind finder; BOOL bWorking = finder.FindFile(filename); if(bWorking) { if(finder.IsDirectory()) { ...............
