std::filesystem::directory_iterator::operator++,: std::filesystem::directory_iterator::operator++,

NAME

std::filesystem::directory_iterator::operator++, - std::filesystem::directory_iterator::operator++,

Synopsis

directory_iterator& operator++();                      (since C++17)
directory_iterator& increment( std::error_code& ec );

Advances the iterator to the next entry. Invalidates all copies of the previous
value of *this.

 This section is incomplete

Parameters

ec - error code to store error status to

Return value

*this

Exceptions

The overload that does not take a std::error_code& parameter throws filesystem_error
on underlying OS API errors, constructed with the OS error code as the error code
argument. The overload taking a std::error_code& parameter sets it to the OS API
error code if an OS API call fails, and executes ec.clear() if no errors occur. Any
overload not marked noexcept may throw std::bad_alloc if memory allocation fails.
