Dealing with Files and Directories

WinFile is part of the CategoryAplApl project.

Overview

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.

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.
