\class QFileInfo
\inmodule QtCore
\reentrant
\brief The QFileInfo class provides system-independent file information.
\ingroup io
\ingroup shared
QFileInfo provides information about a file's name and position
(path) in the file system, its access rights and whether it is a
directory or symbolic link, etc. The file's size and last
modified/read times are also available. QFileInfo can also be
used to obtain information about a Qt \l{resource
system}{resource}.
A QFileInfo can point to a file with either a relative or an
absolute file path. Absolute file paths begin with the directory
separator "/" (or with a drive specification on Windows). Relative
file names begin with a directory name or a file name and specify
a path relative to the current working directory. An example of an
absolute path is the string "/tmp/quartz". A relative path might
look like "src/fatlib". You can use the function isRelative() to
check whether a QFileInfo is using a relative or an absolute file
path. You can call the function makeAbsolute() to convert a
relative QFileInfo's path to an absolute path.
The file that the QFileInfo works on is set in the constructor or
later with setFile(). Use exists() to see if the file exists and
size() to get its size.
The file's type is obtained with isFile(), isDir() and
isSymLink(). The symLinkTarget() function provides the name of the file
the symlink points to.
On Unix (including \macos and iOS), the property getter functions in this
class return the properties such as times and size of the target file, not
the symlink, because Unix handles symlinks transparently. Opening a symlink
using QFile effectively opens the link's target. For example:
\snippet code/src_corelib_io_qfileinfo.cpp 0
On Windows, shortcuts (\c .lnk files) are currently treated as symlinks. As
on Unix systems, the property getters return the size of the targeted file,
not the \c .lnk file itself. This behavior is deprecated and will likely be
removed in a future version of Qt, after which \c .lnk files will be treated
as regular files.
\snippet code/src_corelib_io_qfileinfo.cpp 1
Elements of the file's name can be extracted with path() and
fileName(). The fileName()'s parts can be extracted with
baseName(), suffix() or completeSuffix(). QFileInfo objects to
directories created by Qt classes will not have a trailing file
separator. If you wish to use trailing separators in your own file
info objects, just append one to the file name given to the constructors
or setFile().
The file's dates are returned by created(), lastModified(), lastRead() and
fileTime(). Information about the file's access permissions is
obtained with isReadable(), isWritable() and isExecutable(). The
file's ownership is available from owner(), ownerId(), group() and
groupId(). You can examine a file's permissions and ownership in a
single statement using the permission() function.
\target NTFS permissions
\note On NTFS file systems, ownership and permissions checking is
disabled by default for performance reasons. To enable it,
include the following line:
\snippet ntfsp.cpp 0
Permission checking is then turned on and off by incrementing and
decrementing \c qt_ntfs_permission_lookup by 1.
\snippet ntfsp.cpp 1
\section1 Performance Issues
Some of QFileInfo's functions query the file system, but for
performance reasons, some functions only operate on the
file name itself. For example: To return the absolute path of
a relative file name, absolutePath() has to query the file system.
The path() function, however, can work on the file name directly,
and so it is faster.
\note To speed up performance, QFileInfo caches information about
the file.
Because files can be changed by other users or programs, or
even by other parts of the same program, there is a function that
refreshes the file information: refresh(). If you want to switch
off a QFileInfo's caching and force it to access the file system
every time you request information from it call setCaching(false).
