std::filesystem::begin(recursive_directory_iterator), std::filesystem::end(recursive_directory_iterator) - cppreference.com (original) (raw)
- Returns iter unchanged.
These non-member functions enable the use of recursive_directory_iterators with range-based for loops and make recursive_directory_iterator a range type(since C++20).
[edit] Parameters
| iter | - | a recursive_directory_iterator |
|---|
[edit] Return value
iter unchanged.
End iterator (default-constructed
recursive_directory_iterator).
[edit] Example
#include #include #include #include namespace fs = std::filesystem; int main() { fs::current_path(fs::temp_directory_path()); fs::create_directories("sandbox/a/b"); std::ofstream("sandbox/file1.txt"); fs::create_symlink("a", "sandbox/syma"); std::cout << "Print dir structure using OS specific command 'tree':\n"; std::system("tree --noreport sandbox"); std::cout << "\nPrint dir structure using directory iterator:\n"; for (auto& p : fs::recursive_directory_iterator("sandbox")) std::cout << p << '\n'; fs::remove_all("sandbox"); }
Possible output:
Print dir structure using OS specific command 'tree': sandbox ├── a │ └── b ├── file1.txt └── syma -> a Print dir structure using directory iterator: "sandbox/syma" "sandbox/file1.txt" "sandbox/a" "sandbox/a/b"
