Hello,

I use the Boost Filesystem to browser the data within a directory. On unix systems there are file with a dot on begin, the hidden files. Is there a method for checking the path variable if the file is hidden) like
path p("~/.myhiddenfile");
if (is_regular_file(p) && is_hidden(p))

I would like to exclude hidden files of my browsing list.

Thanks

Phil
