Function Documentation

bool fileExists (  const std::string &  path, bool  ct = false )

Test if a file exists. Parameters: path  Name of file to verify. ct  Flag to check if path is a regular file. Returns: true if path exists and, if ct is set, is a regular file, else false. Note: The function calls stat() test for path and its type, see stat(2). errno is left unchanged in case of an error.
