60 | |
2ae324a7 |
61 | File::stat - by-name interface to Perl's built-in stat() functions |
36477c24 |
62 | |
63 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
64 | |
65 | use File::stat; |
66 | $st = stat($file) or die "No $file: $!"; |
67 | if ( ($st->mode & 0111) && $st->nlink > 1) ) { |
68 | print "$file is executable with lotsa links\n"; |
69 | } |
70 | |
71 | use File::stat qw(:FIELDS); |
72 | stat($file) or die "No $file: $!"; |
73 | if ( ($st_mode & 0111) && $st_nlink > 1) ) { |
74 | print "$file is executable with lotsa links\n"; |
75 | } |
76 | |
77 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
78 | |
79 | This module's default exports override the core stat() |
80 | and lstat() functions, replacing them with versions that return |
81 | "File::stat" objects. This object has methods that |
82 | return the similarly named structure field name from the |
83 | stat(2) function; namely, |
84 | dev, |
85 | ino, |
86 | mode, |
87 | nlink, |
88 | uid, |
89 | gid, |
90 | rdev, |
91 | size, |
92 | atime, |
93 | mtime, |
94 | ctime, |
95 | blksize, |
96 | and |
97 | blocks. |
98 | |
99 | You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace |
100 | as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag. (Note that this still |
101 | overrides your stat() and lstat() functions.) Access these fields as |
102 | variables named with a preceding C<st_> in front their method names. |
103 | Thus, C<$stat_obj-E<gt>dev()> corresponds to $st_dev if you import |
104 | the fields. |
105 | |
106 | To access this functionality without the core overrides, |
107 | pass the C<use> an empty import list, and then access |
108 | function functions with their full qualified names. |
109 | On the other hand, the built-ins are still available |
110 | via the C<CORE::> pseudo-package. |
111 | |
112 | =head1 NOTE |

114 | While this class is currently implemented using the Class::Struct |
36477c24 |
115 | module to build a struct-like class, you shouldn't rely upon this. |
