std::filesy...y::operator=(3)

💅 std::filesystem::directory_entry::operator= 💅

okay bestie, you've landed on the std::filesy...y::operator=(3) page from the C++ Standard Libary — yes, that's literally how it's spelled up top, and we are not fixing it. This page is all about std::filesystem::directory_entry::operator=, aka the assignment operator. It's giving "replace my whole contents with yours" energy. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

std::filesystem::directory_entry::operator= - std::filesystem::directory_entry::operator=

periodt, it's listed twice like that. iconic, lowkey repetitive, but we move. 🫶

🌸 Synopsis 🌸

directory_entry& operator=( const directory_entry& other ) =
(1) (since C++17)
default;
directory_entry& operator=( directory_entry&& other ) noexcept =
(2) (since C++17)
default;

So (1) is the copy-assignment operator, (2) is the move-assignment operator — and yes, the move one is marked noexcept. Both are (since C++17), bestie. 🦋

It replaces the contents of the directory entry (path and cached attributes, if any) with the contents of other. And both copy- and move-assignment operators for directory_entry are defaulted. no handwritten drama, just defaults slaying. ✨

🎀 Parameters 🎀

• other — other directory_entry.

⭐ Return value ⭐

*this — yep, that's the whole return value. It returns *this. 💅
