FileNameCaseSensitive

OS treatment of filenames is case sensitive.

Declaration

Source position: sysunixh.inc line 47

const FileNameCaseSensitive: Boolean = true;

Description

FileNameCaseSensitive is True if case is important when using filenames on the current OS. In this case, the OS will treat files with different cased names as different files. Note that this may depend on the filesystem: Unix operating systems that access a DOS or Windows partition will have this constant set to true, but when writing to the DOS partition, the casing is ignored.

This constant is part of a set of constants that describe the OS characteristics. These constants should be used instead of hardcoding OS characteristics.
