I just had a look at boost::filesystem, and it felt really good to use. There is one common idiom that might be worth including: recursive traversal.
As you have probably figured out from the responses of others, there is a lot of interest but coming up with the right feature set would require some thought.
Maybe. I merely want directory_iterator in a recursive variant. I agree that I should check for a directory myself, so my file_only etc is not important. The depth_first etc thing could be added later; however, as I understood it, we can not guarantee the traversal order. That is also fine, I just think of it as a utility to visit all files in a path. br Thorsten
