Overview
The IsFolder function tests if a folder specified by a string containing a path exists.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
boolean = IsFolder ( string path );
Parameters
path
A string containing a fully qualified path. The last path connector (slash) following the folder name is not required. This parameter supports UTF encoding for filenames with Unicode characters.
Return Value
Returns a boolean value as TRUE if file contains a file that exists or FALSE if it does not. The GetLastError function may contain more information if the function returns FALSE. Error codes match Windows system error codes, see Appendix A — Legato SDK Standard Definitions or MSDN.
Remarks
This function runs on Windows and on the VFC only. A URI scheme cannot be used in the specified filename.
The folder name is not required to have a trailing path delimiter. “c:\windows” is the same as “c:\windows\”.
Root names count as folders. For example, “C:\” will return TRUE but “C:” will return FALSE.
UNC administrative shares and root names as count as folders. For example, “\\computer\d$” or “\\computer\a folder”. However, a plain UNC only, such as “\\computer\” does not.
