std::experi...status_known(3)

💅 std::experi...status_known(3) 💅

Straight from the C++ Standard Libary, bestie — yes, that spelling is in the original, don't come for me 💅.

---

✨ NAME ✨

std::experimental::filesystem::status_known — that's the whole name, no cap. It's literally the same as the title, so this page is being extra.

---

🦋 Synopsis 🦋

Defined in header <experimental/filesystem>
bool status_known( file_status s );         (1) (filesystem TS)

It checks if the given file status is known — equivalent to s.type() != file_type::none.

---

🌸 Parameters 🌸

• s — file status to check.

---

💖 Return value 💖

true if the given file status is an unknown file status. That's the exact return-value line, and yes, it says unknown — keeping it 100% as written, no editing.

---

😭 Exceptions 😭

noexcept specification: noexcept.

So it's an unconditionally noexcept situation, and the categories said so too.

---

👀 Notes 👀

Despite the name, the function checks for the file status of file_type::none (meaning an error occurred), not file_type::unknown (meaning file exists, but its type cannot be determined). Like, the name is a little misleading and the page is calling it out. Periodt.

The original formatting is a whole mood, so here's every piece, bestie:

• status — determines file attributes
• symlink_status — determines file attributes, checking the symlink target
• (function) — the floating label from the page
• cached status of the file designated by this directory entry
• status — cached symlink_status of the file designated by this directory entry
• symlink_status — (public member function of std::experimental::filesystem::directory_entry)
