Function std.file.setAttributes
Set the attributes of the given file.
void setAttributes(R)
(
R name,
uint attributes
)
if (isInputRange!R && !isInfinite!R && isSomeChar!(ElementEncodingType!R) && !isConvertibleToString!R);
void setAttributes(R)
(
auto ref R name,
uint attributes
)
if (isConvertibleToString!R);
For example, a programmatic equivalent of Unix's chmod +x name
to make a file executable is
name
.
Parameters
Name | Description |
---|---|
name | the file name |
attributes | the attributes to set the file to |
Throws
FileException
if the given file does not exist.
Example
setAttributes with a file
import std .exception : assertThrown;
import std .conv : octal;
auto f = deleteme ~ "file";
version (Posix)
{
scope(exit) f .remove;
assert(!f .exists);
assertThrown!FileException(f .setAttributes(octal!777));
f .write(".");
auto attributes = f .getAttributes;
assert(!attributes .attrIsDir);
assert(attributes .attrIsFile);
f .setAttributes(octal!777);
attributes = f .getAttributes;
writeln((attributes & 1023)); // octal!777
}
Example
setAttributes with a directory
import std .exception : assertThrown;
import std .conv : octal;
auto dir = deleteme ~ "dir";
version (Posix)
{
scope(exit) dir .rmdir;
assert(!dir .exists);
assertThrown!FileException(dir .setAttributes(octal!777));
dir .mkdir;
auto attributes = dir .getAttributes;
assert(attributes .attrIsDir);
assert(!attributes .attrIsFile);
dir .setAttributes(octal!777);
attributes = dir .getAttributes;
writeln((attributes & 1023)); // octal!777
}
