/**
* \mainpage PhysicsFS globbing
*
* This is an extension to PhysicsFS to let you search for files with basic
* wildcard matching, regardless of what sort of filesystem or archive they
* reside in. It does this by enumerating directories as needed and manually
* locating matching entries.
*
* Usage: Set up PhysicsFS as you normally would, then use
* PHYSFSEXT_enumerateFilesWildcard() when enumerating files. This is just
2003-06-11 04:10:49 +02:00
* like PHYSFS_enumerateFiles(), but it returns a subset that matches your
* wildcard pattern. You must call PHYSFSEXT_freeEnumeration() on the results,
* just PHYSFS_enumerateFiles() would do with PHYSFS_freeList().

* Matching directories are interpolated. That is, if "C:\mydir" is in the

* "y.Sav", and "z.txt", and there is also a "C:\userdir" in the search path
* that has a "savegames" subdirectory with "w.sav", then the following code:
*
* \code
* char **rc = PHYSFS_enumerateFilesWildcard("savegames", "*.sav", 0);
* char **i;
*
* for (i = rc; *i != NULL; i++)
* printf(" * We've got [%s].\n", *i);
*
* PHYSFS_freeList(rc);
* \endcode
*
* ...will print:
*
* \verbatim
* We've got [x.sav].
* We've got [y.Sav].
* We've got [w.sav].\endverbatim
*
* Feel free to sort the list however you like. We only promise there will
* be no duplicates, but not what order the final list will come back in.
*
* Wildcard strings can use the '*' and '?' characters, currently.
* Matches can be case-insensitive if you pass a zero for argument 3.
*
* Don't forget to call PHYSFSEXT_freeEnumerator() with the return value from
* this function when you are done with it. As we use PhysicsFS's allocator
* for this list, you must free it before calling PHYSFS_deinit().
* Do not use PHYSFS_freeList() on the returned value!

* \brief Get a file listing of a search path's directory, filtered with a wildcard pattern, using an application-defined callback.
*
* This function is equivalent to PHYSFSEXT_enumerateFilesWildcard(). It
* reports file listings, filtered by a wildcard pattern.
*
* Unlike PHYSFS_enumerateFiles(), this function does not return an array.
* Rather, it calls a function specified by the application once per
* element of the search path:
*
* \code
*
* static void printDir(void *data, const char *origdir, const char *fname)
* {
* printf(" * We've got [%s] in [%s].\n", fname, origdir);
* }
*
* // ...
* PHYSFS_enumerateFilesCallbackWildcard("savegames","*.sav",0,printDir,NULL);
* \endcode
*
* Items sent to the callback are not guaranteed to be in any order whatsoever.
* There is no sorting done at this level, and if you need that, you should
* probably use PHYSFS_enumerateFilesWildcard() instead, which guarantees
* alphabetical sorting. This form reports whatever is discovered in each
* archive before moving on to the next. Even within one archive, we can't
* guarantee what order it will discover data. <em>Any sorting you find in
* these callbacks is just pure luck. Do not rely on it.</em> As this walks
* the entire list of archives, you may receive duplicate filenames.
*
* Wildcard strings can use the '*' and '?' characters, currently.
* Matches can be case-insensitive if you pass a zero for argument 3.
*
* \param dir Directory, in platform-independent notation, to enumerate.
* \param wildcard Wildcard pattern to use for filtering.
* \param caseSensitive Zero for case-insensitive matching,
* non-zero for case-sensitive.
* \param c Callback function to notify about search path elements.
* \param d Application-defined data passed to callback. Can be NULL.
