Member Function Documentation

QString QDir::absFilePath(const QString & fileName, bool acceptAbsPath = true) const

Use absoluteFilePath(fileName) instead.

The acceptAbsPath parameter is ignored.

QString QDir::absPath() const

Use absolutePath() instead.

[static] QString QDir::cleanDirPath(const QString & name)

Use cleanPath() instead.

void QDir::convertToAbs()

Use makeAbsolute() instead.

[static] QString QDir::currentDirPath()

Returns the absolute path of the application's current directory.

Use currentPath() instead.

See also currentPath() and setCurrent().

QFileInfoList QDir::entryInfoList(const QString & nameFilter, Filters filters = NoFilter, SortFlags sort = NoSort) const

This is an overloaded function.

Use the overload that takes a name filter string list as first argument instead of a combination of attribute filter flags.

QStringList QDir::entryList(const QString & nameFilter, Filters filters = NoFilter, SortFlags sort = NoSort) const

This is an overloaded function.

Use the overload that takes a name filter string list as first argument instead of a combination of attribute filter flags.

[static] QString QDir::homeDirPath()

Returns the absolute path of the user's home directory.

Use homePath() instead.

See also homePath().

bool QDir::matchAllDirs() const

Use filter() & AllDirs instead.

See also setMatchAllDirs().

bool QDir::mkdir(const QString & dirName, bool acceptAbsPath) const

Use mkdir(dirName) instead.

The acceptAbsPath parameter is ignored.

QString QDir::nameFilter() const

Use nameFilters() instead.

See also setNameFilter().

bool QDir::rmdir(const QString & dirName, bool acceptAbsPath) const

Use rmdir(dirName) instead.

The acceptAbsPath parameter is ignored.

[static] QString QDir::rootDirPath()

Returns the absolute path of the root directory.

Use rootPath() instead.

See also rootPath().

void QDir::setMatchAllDirs(bool on)

Use setFilter() instead.

See also matchAllDirs().

void QDir::setNameFilter(const QString & nameFilter)

Use setNameFilters() instead.

The nameFilter is a wildcard (globbing) filter that understands "*" and "?" wildcards. (See QRegExp wildcard matching.) You may specify several filter entries, each separated by spaces or by semicolons.

For example, if you want entryList() and entryInfoList() to list all files ending with either ".cpp" or ".h", you would use either dir.setNameFilters("*.cpp *.h") or dir.setNameFilters("*.cpp;*.h").

For example, if you have code like

QString filter = "*.cpp *.cxx *.cc";
dir.setNameFilter(filter);

you can rewrite it as

QString filter = "*.cpp *.cxx *.cc";
dir.setNameFilters(filter.split(' '));

See also nameFilter().
