Function std::old_io::fs::statUnstable

pub fn stat(path: &Path) -> IoResult<FileStat>

Given a path, query the file system to get information about a file, directory, etc. This function will traverse symlinks to query information about the destination file.

Example

fn main() { use std::old_io::fs; let p = Path::new("/some/file/path.txt"); match fs::stat(&p) { Ok(stat) => { /* ... */ } Err(e) => { /* handle error */ } } }

use std::old_io::fs;

let p = Path::new("/some/file/path.txt");
match fs::stat(&p) {
    Ok(stat) => { /* ... */ }
    Err(e) => { /* handle error */ }
}

Error

This function will return an error if the user lacks the requisite permissions to perform a stat call on the given path or if there is no entry in the filesystem at the provided path.
