This type represents available options that control the behavior of the directory_iterator and recursive_directory_iterator.

directory_options satisfies the requirements of BitmaskType (which means the bitwise operators operator&, operator|, operator^, operator~, operator&=, operator|=, and operator^= are defined for this type)
