NAME
ftw.h
--- file tree traversal
SYNOPSIS
#include <ftw.h>
DESCRIPTION
The
<ftw.h>
header shall define the
FTW
structure, which shall include at least the following members:
-
int base
int level
The
<ftw.h>
header shall define the following symbolic constants for use as values
of the third argument to the application-supplied function that is
passed as the second argument to
ftw()
and
nftw():
- FTW_F
-
Non-directory file.
- FTW_D
-
Directory.
- FTW_DNR
-
Directory without read permission.
- FTW_DP
-
Directory with subdirectories visited.
- FTW_NS
-
Unknown type;
stat()
failed.
- FTW_SL
-
Symbolic link.
- FTW_SLN
-
Symbolic link that names a nonexistent file.
The
<ftw.h>
header shall define the following symbolic constants for use as
values of the fourth argument to
nftw():
- FTW_PHYS
-
Physical walk, does not follow symbolic links. Otherwise,
nftw()
follows links but does not walk down any path that crosses itself.
- FTW_MOUNT
-
The walk does not cross a mount point.
- FTW_DEPTH
-
All subdirectories are visited before the directory itself.
- FTW_CHDIR
-
The walk changes to each directory before reading it.
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
-
int ftw(const char *, int (*)(const char *, const struct stat *,
int), int);
int nftw(const char *, int (*)(const char *, const struct stat *,
int, struct FTW *), int, int);
The
<ftw.h>
header shall define the
stat
structure and the symbolic names for
st_mode
and the file type test macros as described in
<sys/stat.h>.
Inclusion of the
<ftw.h>
header may also make visible all symbols from
<sys/stat.h>.
The following sections are informative.
APPLICATION USAGE
None.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
