Parameters:

finfo	the file info structure and filled in by apr_dir_read

If APR_INCOMPLETE is returned all the fields in finfo may not be filled in, and you need to check the finfo->valid bitmask to verify that what you're looking for is there. When no more entries are available, APR_ENOENT is returned.
