Description
Problem:
hey, I was hoping to use JNR Posix for opendir and readdir.
In particular, I wanted to obtain inodes without needing to call stat()
.
This would seem possible given that dirents
carry their inode numbers:
struct dirent {
ino_t d_ino; /* Inode number */
off_t d_off; /* Not an offset; see below */
unsigned short d_reclen; /* Length of this record */
unsigned char d_type; /* Type of file; not supported by all filesystem types */
char d_name[256]; /* Null-terminated filename */
}
However, since these functions are c libraries and not syscalls they do not seem supported by your library. Not supported in the sense that when I create a default POSIX handler they are not available in that interface.
Question:
Will these be supported in the future? Is there a way I can use JNR Posix to get access to these kinds of functions and dirents?
