13 wxDirTraverser is an abstract interface which must be implemented by objects
14 passed to wxDir::Traverse function.
15
16 Example of use (this works almost like wxDir::GetAllFiles):
17
18 @code
19 class wxDirTraverserSimple : public wxDirTraverser
20 {
21 public:
22 wxDirTraverserSimple(wxArrayString& files) : m_files(files) { }
23
24 virtual wxDirTraverseResult OnFile(const wxString& filename)
25 {
26 m_files.Add(filename);
27 return wxDIR_CONTINUE;
28 }
29
30 virtual wxDirTraverseResult OnDir(const wxString& WXUNUSED(dirname))
31 {
32 return wxDIR_CONTINUE;
33 }
34
35 private:
36 wxArrayString& m_files;
37 };
38
39 // get the names of all files in the array
40 wxArrayString files;
41 wxDirTraverserSimple traverser(files);
42
43 wxDir dir(dirname);
44 dir.Traverse(traverser);
45 @endcode

86 wxDir is a portable equivalent of Unix open/read/closedir functions which
87 allow enumerating of the files in a directory. wxDir allows to enumerate files
88 as well as directories.
89
90 wxDir also provides a flexible way to enumerate files recursively using
91 wxDir::Traverse or a simpler
92 wxDir::GetAllFiles function.
93
94 Example of use:
95
96 @code
97 wxDir dir(wxGetCwd());
98
99 if ( !dir.IsOpened() )
100 {
101 // deal with the error here - wxDir would already log an error message
102 // explaining the exact reason of the failure
103 return;
104 }
105
106 puts("Enumerating object files in current directory:");
107
108 wxString filename;
