That is annoying but it seems like a trailing slash at the end of a path would be enough to differentiate paths to files from paths to directories.
Doesn't that force the path constructor to access the file system?
I think it just forces the user to supply a path that meets this criteria.
1) I for one would be very surprised by a library that requires this. No tool that I can think of works this way. 2) How do you deal with an input parameter that can be either a file or a directory? Do you have to determine which it is before creating a path? The boost::filesystem functions for determining this take paths... In Christ, Steven Watanabe
