Greetings, I was wondering how to handle errors of filesystem3::rename(). I'd like to use the system::error_code& overload, but I can't seem to find out how to use it. The documentation at [1] points to POSIX rename(), so I'm guessing the error_code somehow corresponds to the POSIX rename() return value. I'm not a native speaker, but I find the documentation pretty vague here. The tutorial section [2] doesn't help either. For example if the target file doesn't exist, the error_code.value() is 3. But I'm not supposed to use the constant 3 in the code, am I? Are there any constants defined that correspond to these error code values? What's the proper way to do the following: TEST( BoostFilesystem3Test, testRenameFails ) { boost::system::error_code ec; boost::filesystem3::rename("c:/does/not/exist", "asdf", ec); ASSERT_EQ(3, ec.value()); } I'm going to use QFile for now, but only because their documentation is (slightly) better. I would like to use boost for as much as possible, so an explanation or pointers to better documentation would be much appreciated. Thank you. Best regards Andreas P.S. I accidentally sent this mail to the boost@ list before, sorry about that. [1] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/filesystem/v3/doc/reference.html#r...
