DirEntry.isFile

Returns whether the file represented by this DirEntry is a file.

On Windows, if a file is not a directory, then it's a file. So, either isFile or isDir will return true.

On POSIX systems, if isFile is true, that indicates that the file is a regular file (e.g. not a block not device). So, on POSIX systems, it's possible for both isFile and isDir to be false for a particular file (in which case, it's a special file). You can use attributes or statBuf to get more information about a special file (see the stat man page for more details).

Examples

auto de1 = DirEntry("/etc/fonts/fonts.conf");
assert(de1.isFile);

auto de2 = DirEntry("/usr/share/include");
assert(!de2.isFile);
