Line 7: Line 8:
Nowadays if there is a need to deal with directories and files, there is .NET, right? Well, some companies have decided against .NET, so there is still the need for a .NET-free solution to this. This is what the WinFile class is designed for. This class offers methods that return the same result under Windows, Linux (without the PI) and Mac OS.
Line 9: Line 10:
But there is more to say to this: try to get a DirectoryInfo for a directory with, say, 100,000 files. Then compare with this class. Examples are `GetPID` and `KillPID`.
Line 11: Line 12:
See the list of methods (generated with [[ADOC]]): Exceptions are the functions `ShellExecute` (Linux/Mac only) and `WinExecute` (Windows only). They
perform very similar tasks but with very different parameters and results, so they were separated.

OS: Interface to the Operating system

OS is part of the CategoryAplTree project.

Overview

This class offers methods that return the same result under Windows, Linux (without the PI) and Mac OS.

Examples are GetPID and KillPID.

Exceptions are the functions ShellExecute (Linux/Mac only) and WinExecute (Windows only). They perform very similar tasks but with very different parameters and results, so they were separated.
