CFileFind::IsDirectory

Call this member function to determine if the found file is a directory.

BOOL IsDirectory( ) const;

Return Value

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

A file that is a directory is marked with FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY a file attribute identified in the WIN32_FIND_DATA structure.

You must call FindNextFile at least once before calling IsDirectory.

See the member function MatchesMask for a complete list of file attributes.

Example

This small program recurses every directory on the C:\ drive and prints the name of the directory.

void Recurse(LPCTSTR pstr)
{
    CFileFind finder;

    // build a string with wildcards
    CString strWildcard(pstr);
    strWildcard += _T("\\*.*");

    // start working for files
    BOOL bWorking = finder.FindFile(strWildcard);

    while (bWorking)
    {
        bWorking = finder.FindNextFile();

        // skip . and .. files; otherwise, we'd 
        // recur infinitely! 

        if (finder.IsDots())
            continue;

        // if it's a directory, recursively search it 

        if (finder.IsDirectory())
        {
            CString str = finder.GetFilePath();
            TRACE(_T("%s\n"), (LPCTSTR)str);
            Recurse(str);
        }
    }
    finder.Close();
}

void PrintDirs()
{
   Recurse(_T("C:"));
}
