- @page overview_file File classes and functions overview
+@page overview_file File Classes and Functions
- Classes: #wxFile, #wxDir, #wxTempFile, #wxTextFile
+Classes: wxFile, wxDir, wxTempFile, wxTextFile
- Functions: see @ref filefunctions_overview.
+Functions: see @ref group_funcmacro_file.
- wxWidgets provides some functions and classes to facilitate working with files.
- As usual, the accent is put on cross-platform features which explains, for
- example, the #wxTextFile class which may be used to convert
- between different types of text files (DOS/Unix/Mac).

- wxFile may be used for low-level IO. It contains all the usual functions to work
- with files (opening/closing, reading/writing, seeking, and so on) but compared with
- using standard C functions, has error checking (in case of an error a message
- is logged using #wxLog facilities) and closes the file
- automatically in the destructor which may be quite convenient.

- wxTempFile is a very small file designed to make replacing the files contents
- safer - see its #documentation for more details.

- wxTextFile is a general purpose class for working with small text files on line
- by line basis. It is especially well suited for working with configuration files
- and program source files. It can be also used to work with files with "non
- native" line termination characters and write them as "native" files if needed
- (in fact, the files may be written in any format).

- wxDir is a helper class for enumerating the files or subdirectories of a
- directory. It may be used to enumerate all files, only files satisfying the
- given template mask or only non-hidden files.
