class FileReference

Defined in: C4Files.h

The FileReference class is used to represent one item in a list of files returned by the FileMgr::BuildFileList function.

Definition

class FileReference : public ListElement<FileReference>

Member Functions

`FileReference::GetName`	Returns the name stored in a `FileReference` object.
`FileReference::GetFlags`	Returns the flags associated with a `FileReference` object.

Constructor

FileReference(const char *name, unsigned long flags = 0);

Parameters

`name`	A pointer to the name of the file. If a path name is specified, it is interpreted relative to the application. Directory names preceding a file name or another directory name should be followed by a single forward slash character (/).
`flags`	The flags associated with the file.

Description

The FileReference class stores the name of a single file. If the name parameter points to a string longer than kMaxFileNameLength, then it is truncated to this length. Applications typically do not need to construct FileReference objects since they are returned in the list built by the FileMgr::BuildFileList function.

The flags parameter can be a combination (through logical OR) of the following bit values.

`kFileDirectory`	The file reference represents a directory.
`kFileInvisible`	The file is invisible.

Base Classes

ListElement<FileReference> FileReference objects are stored in a list by the FileMgr::BuildFileList function.
