FileInfo
This contains file system metadata for a path.
A symlink will report information about itself, other than the size which will be the size of the target. A broken symlink will report as much as it can and will set the broken flag.
class val FileInfo
Constructors
create
This will raise an error if the FileStat capability isn't available or the path doesn't exist.
new val create( from: FilePath val) : FileInfo val^ ?
Parameters
- from: FilePath val
Returns
- FileInfo val^ ?
Public fields
let filepath: FilePath val
let mode: FileMode val
UNIX-style file mode.
let hard_links: U32 val
Number of hardlinks to this filepath
.
let device: U64 val
OS id of the device containing this filepath
. Device IDs consist of a major and minor device id, denoting the type of device and the instance of this type on the system.
let inode: U64 val
UNIX specific INODE number of filepath
. Is 0 on Windows.
let uid: U32 val
UNIX-style user ID of the owner of filepath
.
let gid: U32 val
UNIX-style user ID of the owning group of filepath
.
let size: USize val
Total size of filepath
in bytes.
In case of a symlink this is the size of the target, not the symlink itself.
let access_time: (I64 val , I64 val)
Time of last access as a tuple of seconds and nanoseconds since the epoch:
(let a_secs: I64, let a_nanos: I64) = file_info.access_time
let modified_time: (I64 val , I64 val)
Time of last modification as tuple of seconds and nanoseconds since the epoch:
(let m_secs: I64, let m_nanos: I64) = file_info.modified_time
let change_time: (I64 val , I64 val)
Time of the last change either the attributes (number of links, owner, group, file mode, ...) or the content of filepath
as a tuple of seconds and nanoseconds since the epoch:
(let c_secs: I64, let c_nanos: I64) = file_info.change_time
On Windows this will be the file creation time.

let pipe: Bool val
true
