сканировать каталог (scan a directory)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

alphasort, scandir — scan a directory

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <dirent.h>

int alphasort(const struct dirent **d1, const struct dirent **d2); int scandir(const char *dir, struct dirent ***namelist, int (*sel)(const struct dirent *), int (*compar)(const struct dirent **, const struct dirent **));


Описание (Description)

The alphasort() function can be used as the comparison function
       for the scandir() function to sort the directory entries, d1 and
       d2, into alphabetical order. Sorting happens as if by calling the
       strcoll() function on the d_name element of the dirent structures
       passed as the two parameters. If the strcoll() function fails,
       the return value of alphasort() is unspecified.

The alphasort() function shall not change the setting of errno if successful. Since no return value is reserved to indicate an error, an application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0, then call alphasort(), then check errno.

The scandir() function shall scan the directory dir, calling the function referenced by sel on each directory entry. Entries for which the function referenced by sel returns non-zero shall be stored in strings allocated as if by a call to malloc(), and sorted as if by a call to qsort() with the comparison function compar, except that compar need not provide total ordering. The strings are collected in array namelist which shall be allocated as if by a call to malloc(). If sel is a null pointer, all entries shall be selected. If the comparison function compar does not provide total ordering, the order in which the directory entries are stored is unspecified.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Upon successful completion, the alphasort() function shall return
       an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, according to
       whether the name of the directory entry pointed to by d1 is
       lexically greater than, equal to, or less than the directory
       pointed to by d2 when both are interpreted as appropriate to the
       current locale. There is no return value reserved to indicate an
       error.

Upon successful completion, the scandir() function shall return the number of entries in the array and a pointer to the array through the parameter namelist. Otherwise, the scandir() function shall return -1.


Ошибки (Error)

The scandir() function shall fail if:

EACCES Search permission is denied for the component of the path prefix of dir or read permission is denied for dir.

ELOOP A loop exists in symbolic links encountered during resolution of the dir argument.

ENAMETOOLONG The length of a component of a pathname is longer than {NAME_MAX}.

ENOENT A component of dir does not name an existing directory or dir is an empty string.

ENOMEM Insufficient storage space is available.

ENOTDIR A component of dir names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory.

EOVERFLOW One of the values to be returned or passed to a callback function cannot be represented correctly.

The scandir() function may fail if:

ELOOP More than {SYMLOOP_MAX} symbolic links were encountered during resolution of the dir argument.

EMFILE All file descriptors available to the process are currently open.

ENAMETOOLONG The length of a pathname exceeds {PATH_MAX}, or pathname resolution of a symbolic link produced an intermediate result with a length that exceeds {PATH_MAX}.

ENFILE Too many files are currently open in the system.

The following sections are informative.


Примеры (Examples)

An example to print the files in the current directory:

#include <dirent.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> ... struct dirent **namelist; int i,n;

n = scandir(".", &namelist, 0, alphasort); if (n < 0) perror("scandir"); else { for (i = 0; i < n; i++) { printf("%s\n", namelist[i]->d_name); free(namelist[i]); } } free(namelist); ...


Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

If dir contains filenames that do not form character strings, or
       which contain characters outside the domain of the collating
       sequence of the current locale, the alphasort() function need not
       provide a total ordering. This condition is not possible if all
       filenames within the directory consist only of characters from
       the portable filename character set.

The scandir() function may allocate dynamic storage during its operation. If scandir() is forcibly terminated, such as by longjmp() or siglongjmp() being executed by the function pointed to by sel or compar, or by an interrupt routine, scandir() does not have a chance to free that storage, so it remains permanently allocated. A safe way to handle interrupts is to store the fact that an interrupt has occurred, then wait until scandir() returns to act on the interrupt.

For functions that allocate memory as if by malloc(), the application should release such memory when it is no longer required by a call to free(). For scandir(), this is namelist (including all of the individual strings in namelist).
