Core Class: IsFolder

Previous  Top  Next  


Prototype: (String pPath),String

 

pPathThe path to check if it's a folder or a filename

 

ReturnsReturn information

 

This method returns true if the path name passed in is a folder and false if it is a file.  You can easily have path named C:\myfile.txt as well as a file named C:\myfile.txt.  The IsFolder method will determine if it is a folder or not and return the appropriate value. 

It is overloaded with a method that takes a *CString parameter so it can be used with both string variables and CString variables.

 

Example:

 

ITC ITCoreClass

Fn  CString(2049)

S   CString(1024)

 Code

 Fn = ITC.EXEName

 S = '"' & Fn & '"' & Choose(ITC.IsFolder(Fn)=True,' IS ',' is NOT ') & 'a folder.'

 Fn = LongPath()

 S = S & '|' & '"' & Fn & '"' & Choose(ITC.IsFolder(Fn)=True,' IS ',' is NOT ') & 'a folder.'

 Message(S,'IsFolder')
