https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10240 --- Comment #1 from RazvanN <razvan.nitu1305@gmail.com> --- There are 2 ways to solve this: 1. Either check that the file or directory exists inside the isDir/isFile functions and return false if the path does not exist or the input string doesn't designate a directory/file. This is troublesome since you have one value for 2 different semantics. 2. Create a function existsAndIsDir/File where you can call stat a single time. This means adding 2 new functions that add no extra functionality for the benefit of a micro-optimization. In my opinion we should close this as WONTFIX. -- |

That way users would be to obtain more information in a single call. Unfortunately we have all kinds of functions defined in https://dlang.org/phobos-prerelease/std_file General, Attributes, Timestamp while a single function returning a struct would be much more useful. -- |
