Hello,

Isn't it what you want? http://www.boost.org/libs/filesystem/v3/doc/reference.html#equivalent
Not quite. Suppose I want to test whether a file has a "jpg" extension (case insensitive on Windows). I would like to be able to do:
That would be case insensitive on NTFS, not on all Windows file systems.
path file = ...; path jpeg_ext = ".jpg"; ... if (file.extension() == jpeg_ext)
and have the comparison return true for "something.JPG" on Windows.
I can't do
if (file.extension().equivalent(jpeg_ext))
because equivalent() requires that one of the paths exists().
So what should I do instead?
#if __WIN32__ if (iequals(file.extension().string(), jpeg_ext.string())
You can't check whether a file system is case sensitive at compile time. Cheers, Will
#else if (file.extension() == jpeg_ext) #endif
seems like I'm doing the library's job here...
Regards, Nate
