[Scummvm-devel] Porters: New AbstractFilesystemNode method

[Max Horn]

Dear porters,

I just added a new method to AbstractFilesystemNode. To quote from fs.h:

	/**
	 * The child node with the given name. If no child with this name
	 * exists, returns 0. Will never be called on a node which is not
	 * a directory node.
	 */
	virtual AbstractFilesystemNode *child(const String &name) const = 0;

The posix backend has an extremely simple implementation right now,  
my hope is that for most backends it'll be similarly easy to implement.

If you have any troubles implementing this, or think that something  
is unclear about it, please tell me and I'll make my best efforts to  
help you with this.


This new method is a step towards becoming almost completely "path  
free". One of the next steps will be adding a "File::open 
(FilesystemNode node)" method.


Cheers,
Max
