Function Documentation

std::wstring AppSecInc::File::DirectoryCombine	(	const std::wstring &	dir,
		const std::wstring &	file
	)

Combine two directory paths and an optional file.

std::string AppSecInc::File::DirectoryCreate ( const std::string & path )

Create a directory.

Parameters

path	full path to the directory to create

Returns: first path created

Create a directory with any subdirectories missing. This function will create subdirectories and will return the first directory actually created.

std::wstring AppSecInc::File::DirectoryCreate ( const std::wstring & path )

bool AppSecInc::File::DirectoryDelete	(	const std::string &	path,
		int	flags = `DELETE_DIRECTORY_ALL`
	)

Delete a directory.

    \param path full path to the directory to delete

Parameters

flags flags for directory deletion

Returns

true if directory (and all subdirectories and files) have been deleted, false otherwise

    Delete directories with subdirectories. Optionally delete files

and subdirectories. If flags is DELETE_DIRECTORY_FOLDERS deletes empty (sub)directories only. If an error occurs, the process aborts with an exception.

    No error is thrown if the directory doesn't exist or if it contains no files or subdirectories.

	)

Create an empty file.

Parameters

dwShareMode	share mode
