public class QDir
The QDir class provides access to directory structures and their contents.
A QDir is used to manipulate path names, access information regarding paths and files, and manipulate the underlying file system. It can also be used to access Qt's resource system.
Qt uses "/" as a universal directory separator in the same way that "/" is used as a path separator in URLs. If you always use "/" as a directory separator, Qt will translate your paths to conform to the underlying operating system.
A QDir can point to a file using either a relative or an absolute path. Absolute paths begin with the directory separator (optionally preceded by a drive specification under Windows). Relative file names begin with a directory name or a file name and specify a path relative to the current directory.
Examples of absolute paths:
QDir("/home/user/Documents") QDir("C:/Documents and Settings")
On Windows, the second of the examples above will be translated to C:\My Documents when used to access files.
Examples of relative paths:
QDir("images/landscape.png")
You can use the isRelative or isAbsolute functions to check if a QDir is using a relative or an absolute file path. Call makeAbsolute to convert a relative QDir to an absolute one.
A directory's path can be obtained with the path function, and a new path set with the setPath function. The absolute path to a directory is found by calling absolutePath.
The name of a directory is found using the dirName function. This typically returns the last element in the absolute path that specifies the location of the directory. However, it can also return "." if the QDir represents the current directory.
QDir("Documents/Letters/Applications").dirName() // "Applications" QDir().dirName() // "."
The path for a directory can also be changed with the cd and cdUp functions, both of which operate like familiar shell commands. When cd is called with the name of an existing directory, the QDir object changes directory so that it represents that directory instead. The cdUp function changes the directory of the QDir object so that it refers to its parent directory; i.e. cd("..") is equivalent to cdUp.
Directories can be created with mkdir, renamed with rename, and removed with rmdir.
You can test for the presence of a directory with a given name by using exists, and the properties of a directory can be tested with isReadable, isAbsolute, isRelative, and isRoot.
The refresh function re-reads the directory's data from disk.
Directories contain a number of entries, representing files, directories, and symbolic links. The number of entries in a directory is returned by count. A string list of the names of all the entries in a directory can be obtained with entryList. If you need information about each entry, use entryInfoList to obtain a list of QFileInfo objects.
Paths to files and directories within a directory can be constructed using filePath and absoluteFilePath. The filePath function returns a path to the specified file or directory relative to the path of the QDir object; absoluteFilePath returns an absolute path to the specified file or directory. Neither of these functions checks for the existence of files or directory; they only construct paths.
QDir directory("Documents/Letters"); QString path = directory.filePath("contents.txt"); QString absolutePath = directory.absoluteFilePath("contents.txt");
Files can be removed by using the remove function. Directories cannot be removed in the same way as files; use rmdir to remove them instead.
It is possible to reduce the number of entries returned by entryList and entryInfoList by applying filters to a QDir object. You can apply a name filter to specify a pattern with wildcards that file names need to match, an attribute filter that selects properties of entries and can distinguish between files and directories, and a sort order.
Name filters are lists of strings that are passed to setNameFilters. Attribute filters consist of a bitwise OR combination of Filters, and these are specified when calling setFilter. The sort order is specified using setSorting with a bitwise OR combination of SortFlags.
You can test to see if a filename matches a filter using the match function.
Filter and sort order flags may also be specified when calling entryList and entryInfoList in order to override previously defined behavior.
Access to some common directories is provided with a number of static functions that return QDir objects. There are also corresponding functions for these that return strings:
QDir | QString | Return Value |
---|---|---|
current | currentPath | The application's working directory |
home | homePath | The user's home directory |
root | rootPath | The root directory |
temp | tempPath | The system's temporary directory |
The setCurrent static function can also be used to set the application's working directory.
If you want to find the directory containing the application's executable, see QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath.
The drives static function provides a list of root directories for each device that contains a filing system. On Unix systems this returns a list containing a single root directory "/"; on Windows the list will usually contain C:/, and possibly other drive letters such as D:/, depending on the configuration of the user's system.
Paths containing "." elements that reference the current directory at that point in the path, ".." elements that reference the parent directory, and symbolic links can be reduced to a canonical form using the canonicalPath function.
Paths can also be simplified by using cleanPath to remove redundant "/" and ".." elements.
It is sometimes necessary to be able to show a path in the native representation for the user's platform. The static toNativeSeparators function returns a copy of the specified path in which each directory separator is replaced by the appropriate separator for the underlying operating system.
Check if a directory exists:
QDir dir("example"); if (!dir.exists()) qWarning("Cannot find the example directory");
(We could also use the static convenience function QFile::exists().)
Traversing directories and reading a file:
QDir dir = QDir::root(); // "/" if (!dir.cd("tmp")) { // "/tmp" qWarning("Cannot find the \"/tmp\" directory"); } else { QFile file(dir.filePath("ex1.txt")); // "/tmp/ex1.txt" if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadWrite)) qWarning("Cannot create the file %s", file.name()); }
A program that lists all the files in the current directory (excluding symbolic links), sorted by size, smallest first:
#include <QDir> #include <iostream> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QDir dir; dir.setFilter(QDir::Files | QDir::Hidden | QDir::NoSymLinks); dir.setSorting(QDir::Size | QDir::Reversed); QFileInfoList list = dir.entryInfoList(); std::cout << " Bytes Filename" << std::endl; for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); ++i) { QFileInfo fileInfo = list.at(i); std::cout << qPrintable(QString("%1 %2").arg(fileInfo.size(), 10) .arg(fileInfo.fileName())); std::cout << std::endl; } return 0; }

public QDir()
Equivalent to QDir(QString()).
public QDir(java.lang.String path)
Constructs a QDir pointing to the given directory path. If path is empty the program's working directory, ("."), is used.
public QDir(java.lang.String path, java.lang.String nameFilter, QDir.SortFlags sort)
Equivalent to QDir(path, nameFilter, sort, AllEntries).
public QDir(java.lang.String path, java.lang.String nameFilter)
Equivalent to QDir(path, nameFilter, SortFlags( Name | IgnoreCase ), AllEntries).
public QDir(java.lang.String path, java.lang.String nameFilter, QDir.SortFlags sort, QDir.Filters filter)
Constructs a QDir with path path, that filters its entries by name using nameFilter and by attributes using filter. It also sorts the names using sort.
The default nameFilter is an empty string, which excludes nothing; the default filter is AllEntries, which also means exclude nothing. The default sort is Name | IgnoreCase, i.e. sort by name case-insensitively.
If path is an empty string, QDir uses "." (the current directory). If nameFilter is an empty string, QDir uses the name filter "*" (all files).
Note that path need not exist.
public QDir(QDir arg__1)
Method Detail |
---|
public final java.lang.String absoluteFilePath(java.lang.String fileName)
Returns the absolute path name of a file in the directory. Does not check if the file actually exists in the directory; but see exists. Redundant multiple separators or "." and ".." directories in fileName are not removed (see cleanPath).
public final java.lang.String absolutePath()
Returns the absolute path (a path that starts with "/" or with a drive specification), which may contain symbolic links, but never contains redundant ".", ".." or multiple separators.
public final java.lang.String canonicalPath()
Returns the canonical path, i.e. a path without symbolic links or redundant "." or ".." elements.
On systems that do not have symbolic links this function will always return the same string that absolutePath returns. If the canonical path does not exist (normally due to dangling symbolic links) canonicalPath returns an empty string.
Example:
QString bin = "/local/bin"; // where /local/bin is a symlink to /usr/bin QDir binDir(bin); QString canonicalBin = binDir.canonicalPath(); // canonicalBin now equals "/usr/bin" QString ls = "/local/bin/ls"; // where ls is the executable "ls" QDir lsDir(ls); QString canonicalLs = lsDir.canonicalPath(); // canonicalLS now equals "/usr/bin/ls".
public final boolean cd(java.lang.String dirName)
Changes the QDir's directory to dirName.
Returns true if the new directory exists and is readable; otherwise returns false. Note that the logical cd operation is not performed if the new directory does not exist.
Calling cd("..") is equivalent to calling cdUp.
public final boolean cdUp()
Changes directory by moving one directory up from the QDir's current directory.
Returns true if the new directory exists and is readable; otherwise returns false. Note that the logical cdUp operation is not performed if the new directory does not exist.
public final int count()
Returns the total number of directories and files in the directory.
Equivalent to entryList.count.
public final java.lang.String dirName()
Returns the name of the directory; this is not the same as the path, e.g. a directory with the name "mail", might have the path "/var/spool/mail". If the directory has no name (e.g. it is the root directory) an empty string is returned.
No check is made to ensure that a directory with this name actually exists; but see exists.

Returns true if the directory's path is absolute; otherwise returns false. See isAbsolutePath.
public final boolean isReadable()
Returns true if the directory is readable and we can open files by name; otherwise returns false.
Warning: A false value from this function is not a guarantee that files in the directory are not accessible.
public final boolean isRelative()
Returns true if the directory path is relative; otherwise returns false. (Under Unix a path is relative if it does not start with a "/").
public final boolean isRoot()
Returns true if the directory is the root directory; otherwise returns false.
Note: If the directory is a symbolic link to the root directory this function returns false. If you want to test for this use canonicalPath, e.g.
QDir dir("/tmp/root_link"); dir = dir.canonicalPath(); if (dir.isRoot()) qWarning("It is a root link");
public final boolean makeAbsolute()
Converts the directory path to an absolute path. If it is already absolute nothing happens. Returns true if the conversion succeeded; otherwise returns false.
public final boolean mkdir(java.lang.String dirName)
Creates a sub-directory called dirName.
Returns true on success; otherwise returns false.
public final boolean mkpath(java.lang.String dirPath)
Creates the directory path dirPath.
The function will create all parent directories necessary to create the directory.
Returns true if successful; otherwise returns false.
public final java.util.List<java.lang.String> nameFilters()
Returns the string list set by setNameFilters
public final java.lang.String path()
Returns the path. This may contain symbolic links, but never contains redundant ".", ".." or multiple separators.
The returned path can be either absolute or relative (see setPath).
public final void refresh()
Refreshes the directory information.
public final java.lang.String relativeFilePath(java.lang.String fileName)
Returns the path to fileName relative to the directory.
QDir dir("/home/bob"); QString s; s = dir.relativeFilePath("images/file.jpg"); // s is "images/file.jpg" s = dir.relativeFilePath("/home/mary/file.txt"); // s is "../mary/file.txt"
public final boolean remove(java.lang.String fileName)
Removes the file, fileName.
Returns true if the file is removed successfully; otherwise returns false.
public final boolean rename(java.lang.String oldName, java.lang.String newName)
Renames a file or directory from oldName to newName, and returns true if successful; otherwise returns false.
On most file systems, rename fails only if oldName does not exist, if newName and oldName are not on the same partition or if a file with the new name already exists. However, there are also other reasons why rename can fail. For example, on at least one file system rename fails if newName points to an open file.
public final boolean rmdir(java.lang.String dirName)
Removes the directory specified by dirName.
The directory must be empty for rmdir to succeed.
Returns true if successful; otherwise returns false.
public final boolean rmpath(java.lang.String dirPath)
Removes the directory path dirPath.
The function will remove all parent directories in dirPath, provided that they are empty. This is the opposite of mkpath(dirPath).
Returns true if successful; otherwise returns false.
public final void setFilter(QDir.Filter... filter)
Sets the filter used by entryList and entryInfoList to filter. The filter is used to specify the kind of files that should be returned by entryList and entryInfoList. See QDir::Filter.
public final void setFilter(QDir.Filters filter)
Sets the filter used by entryList and entryInfoList to filter. The filter is used to specify the kind of files that should be returned by entryList and entryInfoList. See QDir::Filter.
public final void setNameFilters(java.util.List<java.lang.String> nameFilters)
Sets the name filters used by entryList and entryInfoList to the list of filters specified by nameFilters.
Each name filter is a wildcard (globbing) filter that understands * and ? wildcards. (See QRegExp wildcard matching.)
For example, the following code sets three name filters on a QDir to ensure that only files with extensions typically used for C++ source files are listed:
QStringList filters; filters << "*.cpp" << "*.cxx" << "*.cc"; dir.setNameFilters(filters);
public final void setPath(java.lang.String path)
Sets the path of the directory to path. The path is cleaned of redundant ".", ".." and of multiple separators. No check is made to see whether a directory with this path actually exists; but you can check for yourself using exists.
The path can be either absolute or relative. Absolute paths begin with the directory separator "/" (optionally preceded by a drive specification under Windows). Relative file names begin with a directory name or a file name and specify a path relative to the current directory. An example of an absolute path is the string "/tmp/quartz", a relative path might look like "src/fatlib".
public final void setSorting(QDir.SortFlag... sort)
Sets the sort order used by entryList and entryInfoList.
The sort is specified by OR-ing values from the enum QDir::SortFlag.
public final void setSorting(QDir.SortFlags sort)
Sets the sort order used by entryList and entryInfoList.
The sort is specified by OR-ing values from the enum QDir::SortFlag.
public final QDir.SortFlags sorting()
Returns the value set by setSorting
public static void addSearchPath(java.lang.String prefix, java.lang.String path)
Adds path to the search path for prefix.
public static java.lang.String cleanPath(java.lang.String path)
Removes all multiple directory separators "/" and resolves any "."s or ".."s found in the path, path.
Symbolic links are kept. This function does not return the canonical path, but rather the simplest version of the input. For example, "./local" becomes "local", "local/../bin" becomes "bin" and "/local/usr/../bin" becomes "/local/bin".
public static QDir current()
Returns the application's current directory.
The directory is constructed using the absolute path of the current directory, ensuring that its path will be the same as its absolutePath.
public static java.lang.String currentPath()
Returns the absolute path of the application's current directory.
public static java.util.List<QFileInfo> drives()
Returns a list of the root directories on this system.
On Windows this returns a list of QFileInfo objects containing "C:/", "D:/", etc. On other operating systems, it returns a list containing just one root directory (i.e. "/").
public static java.lang.String fromNativeSeparators(java.lang.String pathName)
Returns pathName using '/' as file separator. On Windows, for instance, fromNativeSeparators("c:\winnt\system32") returns "c:/winnt/system32".
The returned string may be the same as the argument on some operating systems, for example on Unix.
public static QDir home()
Returns the user's home directory.
The directory is constructed using the absolute path of the home directory, ensuring that its path will be the same as its absolutePath.
See homePath for details.
public static java.lang.String homePath()
Returns the absolute path of the user's home directory.
Under Windows this function will return the directory of the current user's profile. Typically, this is:
C:/Documents and Settings/Username
Use the toNativeSeparators function to convert the separators to the ones that are appropriate for the underlying operating system.
If the directory of the current user's profile does not exist or cannot be retrieved, the following alternatives will be checked (in the given order) until an existing and available path is found:
Under non-Windows operating systems the HOME environment variable is used if it exists, otherwise the path returned by the rootPath function is used.
public static boolean isAbsolutePath(java.lang.String path)
Returns true if path is absolute; returns false if it is relative.
public static boolean isRelativePath(java.lang.String path)
Returns true if path is relative; returns false if it is absolute.
public static boolean match(java.util.List<java.lang.String> filters, java.lang.String fileName)
Returns true if the fileName matches any of the wildcard (glob) patterns in the list of filters; otherwise returns false. The matching is case insensitive.
public static boolean match(java.lang.String filter, java.lang.String fileName)
Returns true if the fileName matches the wildcard (glob) pattern filter; otherwise returns false. The filter may contain multiple patterns separated by spaces or semicolons. The matching is case insensitive.
public static java.util.List<java.lang.String> nameFiltersFromString(java.lang.String nameFilter)
public static QDir root()
Returns the root directory.
The directory is constructed using the absolute path of the root directory, ensuring that its path will be the same as its absolutePath.
See rootPath for details.
public static java.lang.String rootPath()
Returns the absolute path of the root directory.
For Unix operating systems this returns "/". For Windows file systems this normally returns "c:/".
public static java.util.List<java.lang.String> searchPaths(java.lang.String prefix)
Returns the search paths for prefix.
public static char separator()
Returns the native directory separator: "/" under Unix (including Mac OS X) and "\" under Windows.
You do not need to use this function to build file paths. If you always use "/", Qt will translate your paths to conform to the underlying operating system. If you want to display paths to the user using their operating system's separator use toNativeSeparators.
public static boolean setCurrent(java.lang.String path)
Sets the application's current working directory to path. Returns true if the directory was successfully changed; otherwise returns false.
public static void setSearchPaths(java.lang.String prefix, java.util.List<java.lang.String> searchPaths)
Sets or replaces Qt's search paths for file names with the prefix prefix to searchPaths.
To specify a prefix for a file name, prepend the prefix followed by a single colon (e.g., "images:undo.png", "xmldocs:books.xml"). prefix can only contain letters or numbers (e.g., it cannot contain a colon, nor a slash).
Qt uses this search path to locate files with a known prefix. The search path entries are tested in order, starting with the first entry.
QDir::setSearchPaths("icons", QStringList(QDir::homePath() + "/images")); QDir::setSearchPaths("docs", QStringList(":/embeddedDocuments")); ... QPixmap pixmap("icons:undo.png"); // will look for undo.png in QDir::homePath() + "/images" QFile file("docs:design.odf"); // will look in the :/embeddedDocuments resource path
File name prefix must be at least 2 characters long to avoid conflicts with Windows drive letters.
Search paths may contain paths to {The Qt Resource System}.
public static QDir temp()
Returns the system's temporary directory.
The directory is constructed using the absolute path of the temporary directory, ensuring that its path will be the same as its absolutePath.
See tempPath for details.
public static java.lang.String tempPath()
Returns the absolute path of the system's temporary directory.
On Unix/Linux systems this is usually /tmp; on Windows this is usually the path in the TEMP or TMP environment variable. Whether a directory separator is added to the end or not, depends on the operating system.
public static java.lang.String toNativeSeparators(java.lang.String pathName)
Returns pathName with the '/' separators converted to separators that are appropriate for the underlying operating system.
On Windows, toNativeSeparators("c:/winnt/system32") returns "c:\winnt\system32".
The returned string may be the same as the argument on some operating systems, for example on Unix.
public static QDir fromNativePointer(QNativePointer nativePointer)
nativePointer
- the QNativePointer of which object should be returned.public static QNativePointer nativePointerArray(QDir[] array)
array
- the array that the returned pointer will point to.
