I try to create some kind of file browser. I want to know if file under path is executable in a cross-platform way.

How to do such thing with boost::filesystem?

Boost doesn't have stuff about permissions, because POSIX permissions are not "crossplatform".

Use the platform-specific APIs at your disposal as required. Sorry!
