Description

TFileAttr is an enumerated type with values that represent file and directory attributes for a selection in TFileListBox. Values from TFileAttr are stored in the TFileType set, which is used to implement the FileType property in TFileListBox.

Values in TFileAttr generally correspond to the file attributes used in TSearchRec from the FreePascal RTL (Run-Time Library). The differences are:

ftNormal: This represents a file lacking any other file attributes; represented in TSearchRec with the Integer value 0 (zero).
fsAnyFile: This value from TSearchRec is not represented in TFileAttr; it is a search mask and not an actual file attribute.

TFileListBox		Implements a file selection list box control.
TFileType		Set type used to store file attributes.
