/*!
  \class QFileInfo qfileinfo.h
  \brief The QFileInfo class provides system-independent file information.

  \ingroup io

  QFileInfo provides information about a file's name and position (path) in
  the file system, its access rights and whether it is a directory or a
  symbolic link.  Its size and last modified/read times are also available.

  To speed up performance QFileInfo caches information about the file. Since
  files can be changed by other users or programs, or even by other parts of
  the same program there is a function that refreshes the file information;
  refresh(). If you would rather like a QFileInfo to access the file system
  every time you request information from it, you can call the function
  setCaching( FALSE ).

  A QFileInfo can point to a file using either a relative or an absolute
  file path. Absolute file paths begin with the directory separator
  ('/') or a drive specification (not applicable to UNIX).
  Relative file names begin with a directory name or a file name and specify
  a path relative to the current directory. An example of
  an absolute path is the string "/tmp/quartz". A relative path might look like
  "src/fatlib". You can use the function isRelative() to check if a QFileInfo
  is using a relative or an absolute file path. You can call the function
  convertToAbs() to convert a relative QFileInfo to an absolute one.

  If you need to read and traverse directories, see the QDir class.
