Retorno do PathIsDirectory

2008-09-10 · 9 · 1775

Este ainda é um rascunho publicado prematuramente e está sujeito a mudanças substanciais.

Estava eu outro dia programando aquele código esperto “para ontem” quando me deparei com uma situação no mínimo inusitada. Ao testar se um caminho recebido era de fato um diretório.aspx) me foi retornado pela API um valor diferente de TRUE. E diferente de FALSE!

De acordo com a documentação, o retorno deveria ser TRUE caso o caminho enviado à função fosse de fato um diretório. Caso contrário, o retorno deveria ser FALSE.

Note que existem apenas dois valores possíveis para essa função. Porém, o valor retornado não é 1, o equivalente ao define TRUE, mas sim 0x10 (16 em hexadecimal). O simples exemplo abaixo deve conseguir reproduzir a situação (Windows XP Service Pack 3):

Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools.

C:\Tests>copy con IsPathDir.cpp
#include <shlwapi.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#pragma comment(lib, "shlwapi.lib")

int main()
{
        BOOL isDir = PathIsDirectory("C:\\Tests"); // obs.: diretorio TEM que existir
        printf("Resultado: %d.\n", isDir);
}^Z

Resultado: 16.

Isso quer dizer apenas que o código abaixo vai funcionar,

if( PathIsDirectory(path) ) // legal: qualquer coisa diferente de zero

o código abaixo vai funcionar

if( ! PathIsDirectory(path) ) // legal: se der zero (FALSE), OK

e o código abaixo não vai funcionar:

if( PathIsDirectory(path) == TRUE ) // vixi: TRUE nem sempre é o resultado

E, pior, o código abaixo também não vai funcionar!

if( PathIsDirectory(path) != TRUE ) // aff... é bom rever os seus conceitos

Pesquisando um pouco descobri uma boa discussão sobre o tema, e inclusive que outras pessoas descobriram o interessante detalhe que para pastas normais o retorno é 0x10, mas para compartilhamentos o retorno é 0x1.

O problema ocorre por causa da maneira que a função determina se o caminho é um diretório ou não. Uma simples vistoria sobre a função nos revela o detalhe crucial:

Ou seja, para pastas locais a função simplesmente usa a conhecidíssima GetFileAttributes.aspx), que retorna o flag 0x10 setado caso se trate de uma pasta, de acordo com a documentação:

“The attributes can be one or more of the following values.

Return code/value              Description


FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE         A file or directory that is an archive file or directory.
32
0x20


FILE_ATTRIBUTE_COMPRESSED      A file or directory that is compressed.
2048
0x800
...

FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY       The handle that identifies a directory.
16
0x10"

Aqui termina nossa dúvida sobre o pequenino bug na documentação. E isso nos lembra também que é sempre bom comparar as coisas da melhor maneira possível. E essa melhor maneira em se tratando de ifs é supor apenas dois valores binário: ou é zero ou é não-zero.
