    When iterating inside a directory I also have "." and "..",(sorry forgot they're names) which is the best action to skip them?
    I use the following method to skip them:

    @QDirIterator it(".p");
    while(it.hasNext()){
    it.next();
    if(it.fileName()=="." || it.fileName()==".."){
    continue;
    }
    qDebug()<<it.fileName();
    }@

    Is there any cleaner solution?

    Using Qt 5.3 on Ubuntu.

      Hi,

      Just use the QDir::NoDotAndDotDot filter when constructing your QDirIterator and you should be good

        Thank you, though QDir::NoDotAndDotDot stopped the iterator from showing anything, so I used QDir::Files and it's just the files without the special entries.
