SYNOPSIS¶

BOOL PathIsDirectoryA
(
LPCSTR lpszPath
)

DESCRIPTION¶

PARAMS¶

lpszPath [In] Path to check.

RETURNS¶

FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY if lpszPath exists and can be read (See Notes) FALSE if lpszPath is invalid or not a directory.

NOTES¶

Although this function is prototyped as returning a BOOL, it returns FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY for success. This means that code such as:
if (PathIsDirectoryA("c:\windows\") == TRUE)
... will always fail.
