al_for_each_fs_entry(3)     Library Functions Manual	 al_for_each_fs_entry(3)

NAME
     al_for_each_fs_entry - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

	    int al_for_each_fs_entry(ALLEGRO_FS_ENTRY *dir,
				     int (*callback)(ALLEGRO_FS_ENTRY *dir, void *extra),
				     void *extra)

DESCRIPTION
     This  function  takes the ALLEGRO_FS_ENTRY(3) dir, which should represent a
     directory, and looks for any other file system  entries  that  are  in  it.
     This  function will then call the callback function callback once for every
     filesystem entry in the directory dir.

     The callback callback must be of type int callback(ALLEGRO_FS_ENTRY  *  en-
     try, void * extra).  The callback will be called with a pointer to an ALLE-
     GRO_FS_ENTRY(3)  that matches one file or directory in dir, and the pointer
     passed in the extra parameter to al_for_each_fs_entry(3).

     When   callback	returns    ALLEGRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_STOP    or    ALLE-
     GRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_ERROR,    iteration	 will	stop   immediately   and
     al_for_each_fs_entry(3) will return the value the callback returned.

     When callback returns ALLEGRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_OK iteration will	continue
     normally,	and if the ALLEGRO_FS_ENTRY(3) parameter of callback is a direc-
     tory, al_for_each_fs_entry(3) will call itself on that  directory.   There-
     fore the function will recusively descend into that directory.

     However,  when  callback  returns	ALLEGRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_SKIP iteration
     will continue, but al_for_each_fs_entry(3) will NOT recurse into the  ALLE-
     GRO_FS_ENTRY(3) parameter of callback even if it is a directory.

     This  function  will  skip any files or directories named . or .. which may
     exist on certain platforms and may signify the current and the  parent  di-
     rectory.	The  callback  will  not be called for files or directories with
     such a name.

     Returns	ALLEGRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_OK	if    successful,    or    ALLE-
     GRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_ERROR  if  something went wrong in processing the di-
     rectory.  In that case it will use al_set_errno(3) to indicate the type  of
     error which occurred.  This function returns ALLEGRO_FOR_EACH_FS_ENTRY_STOP
     in  case  iteration  was  stopped by making callback return that value.  In
     this case, al_set_errno(3) will not be used.
