bfs::path p("/home/user/folder"); bfs::directory_iterator dir_iter(p), dir_end; for(;dir_iter != dir_end; ++dir_iter) { if( bfs::extension(*dir_iter) == ".txt" ) do_something(); elseif( bfs::extension(*dir_iter) == ".doc" ) do_something_different(); }

For the most part not my code :-)

I found http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/filesystem/doc/index.htm by following www.boost.org => Documentation => Libraries 1.35.0 - Current Release => Filesystem

Please note that there are some minor errors in the documentation. So I think the function remove_all() mentioned in the tutorial should not be used (does it even exist?) as it is not documented and also the TR2 proposal doesn't mention it.

Please report these. I probably have to create a bug report as well as it seems the author doesn't (currently) read the lists.

The link supplied by Jens contains a horizontal toolbar. There is a link to reference, which points to: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html

There you can find boost::filesystem::extension function and many more.

With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian

can you please tell me whats the comand to compile programs which uses boost/thread libraries ...on gnu g++ on comand line ( im using fedora core 8)

I'm using 1.35, which I built myself, on my linux box (ubuntu Gutsy). The code compiles fine without any bells and whistles using the following command: g++ -I/usr/local/include/boost-1_35 -c foo.cpp Assuming: 1. The boost headers are installed in /usr/local/include/boost-1_35 2. Your source file is foo.cpp I *highly* recommend learning how to use your compiler *before* playing with boost too extensively.

Mohan, Maybe just try: g++ source.cpp and then post the errors from the compiler here and we'll work through them? Cheers, Brad
