Description
The DirectoryIterator class is used to enumerate all files in a directory.
DirectoryIterator has some limitations:
- only forward iteration (++) is supported
- an iterator copied from another one will always point to the same file as the original iterator, even is the original iterator has been advanced (all copies of an iterator share their state with the original iterator)
- because of this you should only use the prefix increment operator
