The fix would be to rename the enum as file_status, and remove the current class file_status entirely. That would break a certain amount of existing code, but I suspect the C++ committee would force such a change anyhow for TR2, so better to get it over with now.
Comments? Opinions?
Keep the status() function but add a filetype() function which returns a file_type enumerated value.
Hum... That would ease the transition. It has also gotten me thinking about other ways to minimize breakage of existing code. More later. Thanks, --Beman
