    \class QDir
    \brief The QDir class provides access to directory structures and their contents.

    \ingroup io
    \ingroup shared
    \reentrant


    A QDir is used to manipulate path names, access information
    regarding paths and files, and manipulate the underlying file
    system. It can also be used to access Qt's \l{resource system}.

    Qt uses "/" as a universal directory separator in the same way
    that "/" is used as a path separator in URLs. If you always use
    "/" as a directory separator, Qt will translate your paths to
    conform to the underlying operating system.

    A QDir can point to a file using either a relative or an absolute
    path. Absolute paths begin with the directory separator
    (optionally preceded by a drive specification under Windows).
    Relative file names begin with a directory name or a file name and
    specify a path relative to the current directory.

    Examples of absolute paths:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 0

    On Windows, the second example above will be translated to
    \c{C:\Documents and Settings} when used to access files.

    Examples of relative paths:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 1

    You can use the isRelative() or isAbsolute() functions to check if
    a QDir is using a relative or an absolute file path. Call
    makeAbsolute() to convert a relative QDir to an absolute one.

    \section1 Navigation and Directory Operations

    A directory's path can be obtained with the path() function, and
    a new path set with the setPath() function. The absolute path to
    a directory is found by calling absolutePath().

    The name of a directory is found using the dirName() function. This
    typically returns the last element in the absolute path that specifies
    the location of the directory. However, it can also return "." if
    the QDir represents the current directory.

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 2

    The path for a directory can also be changed with the cd() and cdUp()
    functions, both of which operate like familiar shell commands.
    When cd() is called with the name of an existing directory, the QDir
    object changes directory so that it represents that directory instead.
    The cdUp() function changes the directory of the QDir object so that
    it refers to its parent directory; i.e. cd("..") is equivalent to
    cdUp().

    Directories can be created with mkdir(), renamed with rename(), and
    removed with rmdir().

    You can test for the presence of a directory with a given name by
    using exists(), and the properties of a directory can be tested with
    isReadable(), isAbsolute(), isRelative(), and isRoot().

    The refresh() function re-reads the directory's data from disk.

    \section1 Files and Directory Contents

    Directories contain a number of entries, representing files,
    directories, and symbolic links. The number of entries in a
    directory is returned by count().
    A string list of the names of all the entries in a directory can be
    obtained with entryList(). If you need information about each
    entry, use entryInfoList() to obtain a list of QFileInfo objects.

    Paths to files and directories within a directory can be
    constructed using filePath() and absoluteFilePath().
    The filePath() function returns a path to the specified file
    or directory relative to the path of the QDir object;
    absoluteFilePath() returns an absolute path to the specified
    file or directory. Neither of these functions checks for the
    existence of files or directory; they only construct paths.

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 3

    Files can be removed by using the remove() function. Directories
    cannot be removed in the same way as files; use rmdir() to remove
    them instead.

    It is possible to reduce the number of entries returned by
    entryList() and entryInfoList() by applying filters to a QDir object.
    You can apply a name filter to specify a pattern with wildcards that
    file names need to match, an attribute filter that selects properties
    of entries and can distinguish between files and directories, and a
    sort order.

    Name filters are lists of strings that are passed to setNameFilters().
    Attribute filters consist of a bitwise OR combination of Filters, and
    these are specified when calling setFilter().
    The sort order is specified using setSorting() with a bitwise OR
    combination of SortFlags.

    You can test to see if a filename matches a filter using the match()
    function.

    Filter and sort order flags may also be specified when calling
    entryList() and entryInfoList() in order to override previously defined
    behavior.

    \section1 The Current Directory and Other Special Paths

    Access to some common directories is provided with a number of static
    functions that return QDir objects. There are also corresponding functions
    for these that return strings:

    \table
    \header \o QDir      \o QString         \o Return Value
    \row    \o current() \o currentPath()   \o The application's working directory
    \row    \o home()    \o homePath()      \o The user's home directory
    \row    \o root()    \o rootPath()      \o The root directory
    \row    \o temp()    \o tempPath()      \o The system's temporary directory
    \endtable

    The setCurrent() static function can also be used to set the application's
    working directory.

    If you want to find the directory containing the application's executable,
    see \l{QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath()}.

    The drives() static function provides a list of root directories for each
    device that contains a filing system. On Unix systems this returns a list
    containing a single root directory "/"; on Windows the list will usually
    contain \c{C:/}, and possibly other drive letters such as \c{D:/}, depending
    on the configuration of the user's system.

    \section1 Path Manipulation and Strings

    Paths containing "." elements that reference the current directory at that
    point in the path, ".." elements that reference the parent directory, and
    symbolic links can be reduced to a canonical form using the canonicalPath()
    function.

    Paths can also be simplified by using cleanPath() to remove redundant "/"
    and ".." elements.

    It is sometimes necessary to be able to show a path in the native
    representation for the user's platform. The static toNativeSeparators()
    function returns a copy of the specified path in which each directory
    separator is replaced by the appropriate separator for the underlying
    operating system.

    \section1 Examples

    Check if a directory exists:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 4

    (We could also use the static convenience function
    QFile::exists().)

    Traversing directories and reading a file:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 5

    A program that lists all the files in the current directory
    (excluding symbolic links), sorted by size, smallest first:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/qdir-listfiles/main.cpp 0

    \sa QFileInfo, QFile, QFileDialog, QApplication::applicationDirPath(), {Find Files Example}
*/

/*!
    Constructs a QDir pointing to the given directory \a path. If path
    is empty the program's working directory, ("."), is used.

    \sa currentPath()
*/
QDir::QDir(const QString &path) : d_ptr(new QDirPrivate(path))
{
}

/*!
    Constructs a QDir with path \a path, that filters its entries by
    name using \a nameFilter and by attributes using \a filters. It
    also sorts the names using \a sort.

    The default \a nameFilter is an empty string, which excludes
    nothing; the default \a filters is \l AllEntries, which also means
    exclude nothing. The default \a sort is \l Name | \l IgnoreCase,
    i.e. sort by name case-insensitively.

    If \a path is an empty string, QDir uses "." (the current
    directory). If \a nameFilter is an empty string, QDir uses the
    name filter "*" (all files).

    Note that \a path need not exist.

    \sa exists(), setPath(), setNameFilter(), setFilter(), setSorting()
*/
QDir::QDir(const QString &path, const QString &nameFilter,
           SortFlags sort, Filters filters)
    : d_ptr(new QDirPrivate(path, QDir::nameFiltersFromString(nameFilter), sort, filters))
{
}

    effect on the underlying directory in the file system.
*/

}

    redundant ".", ".." and of multiple separators. No check is made
    to see whether a directory with this path actually exists; but you
    can check for yourself using exists().

    The path can be either absolute or relative. Absolute paths begin
    with the directory separator "/" (optionally preceded by a drive
    specification under Windows). Relative file names begin with a
    directory name or a file name and specify a path relative to the
    current directory. An example of an absolute path is the string
    "/tmp/quartz", a relative path might look like "src/fatlib".

    setPath()).

    \sa setPath(), absolutePath(), exists(), cleanPath(), dirName(),

*/

{
    const QDirPrivate* d = d_ptr.constData();
    return d->path;
}

/*!

    drive specification), which may contain symbolic links, but never
    contains redundant ".", ".." or multiple separators.

    \sa setPath(), canonicalPath(), exists(), cleanPath(),
    dirName(), absoluteFilePath()
*/
QString QDir::absolutePath() const
{
    const QDirPrivate* d = d_ptr.constData();
    QString ret = d->path;
    if (QDir::isRelativePath(ret))
        ret = absoluteFilePath(QString::fromLatin1(""));
    return cleanPath(ret);
}

/*!
    Returns the canonical path, i.e. a path without symbolic links or
    redundant "." or ".." elements.

    On systems that do not have symbolic links this function will
    always return the same string that absolutePath() returns. If the
    canonical path does not exist (normally due to dangling symbolic
    links) canonicalPath() returns an empty string.

    Example:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 6

    \value AllDirs  List all directories; i.e. don't apply the filters
                    to directory names.
    \value Files   List files.
    \value Drives  List disk drives (ignored under Unix).

    \value NoDotAndDotDot Do not list the special entries "." and "..".
    \value NoDot       Do not list the special entry ".".

    \value AllEntries  List directories, files, drives and symlinks (this does not list
                broken symlinks unless you specify System).
    \value Readable    List files for which the application has read
                       access. The Readable value needs to be combined
                       with Dirs or Files.
    \value Writable    List files for which the application has write
                       access. The Writable value needs to be combined
                       with Dirs or Files.
    \value Executable  List files for which the application has
                       execute access. The Executable value needs to be
                       combined with Dirs or Files.
    \value Modified  Only list files that have been modified (ignored
                     on Unix).
    \value Hidden  List hidden files (on Unix, files starting with a ".").
    \value System  List system files (on Unix, FIFOs, sockets and
                   device files are included; on Windows, \c {.lnk}
                   files are included)

    \omitvalue TypeMask
    \omitvalue All
    \omitvalue RWEMask
    \omitvalue AccessMask
    \omitvalue PermissionMask
    \omitvalue NoFilter

    Functions that use Filter enum values to filter lists of files
    and directories will include symbolic links to files and directories
    unless you set the NoSymLinks value.

    A default constructed QDir will not filter out files based on
    their permissions, so entryList() and entryInfoList() will return
    all files that are readable, writable, executable, or any
    combination of the three.  This makes the default easy to write,
    and at the same time useful.

    For example, setting the \c Readable, \c Writable, and \c Files
    flags allows all files to be listed for which the application has read
    access, write access or both. If the \c Dirs and \c Drives flags are
    also included in this combination then all drives, directories, all
    files that the application can read, write, or execute, and symlinks
    to such files/directories can be listed.

    To retrieve the permissons for a directory, use the
    entryInfoList() function to get the associated QFileInfo objects
    and then use the QFileInfo::permissons() to obtain the permissions
    and ownership for each file.

    \macro void Q_INIT_RESOURCE(name)

    Initializes the resources specified by the \c .qrc file with the
    specified base \a name. Normally, Qt resources are loaded
    automatically at startup. The Q_INIT_RESOURCE() macro is
    necessary on some platforms for resources stored in a static
    library.

    For example, if your application's resources are listed in a file
    called \c myapp.qrc, you can ensure that the resources are
    initialized at startup by adding this line to your \c main()
    function:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 13

    If the file name contains characters that cannot be part of a valid C++ function name
    (such as '-'), they have to be replaced by the underscore character ('_').

    Note: This macro cannot be used in a namespace. It should be called from
    main(). If that is not possible, the following workaround can be used
    to init the resource \c myapp from the function \c{MyNamespace::myFunction}:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_io_qdir.cpp 14

    Normally, Qt resources are unloaded automatically when the
    application terminates, but if the resources are located in a
    plugin that is being unloaded, call Q_CLEANUP_RESOURCE() to force
    removal of your resources.

    Note: This macro cannot be used in a namespace. Please see the
    Q_INIT_RESOURCE documentation for a workaround.
