typeSync method - FileSystemEntity class - dart:io library (original) (raw)

typeSync static method

FileSystemEntityType typeSync(

1. String path, {
2. bool followLinks = true, })

Synchronously finds the type of file system object that a path points to.

Returns FileSystemEntityType.notFound if path does not point to a file system object or if any other error occurs in looking up the path.

If path points to a link and followLinks is true then the result will be for the file system object that the link points to. If that object does not exist then the result will beFileSystemEntityType.notFound. If path points to a link andfollowLinks is false then the result will beFileSystemEntityType.link.

Implementation

static FileSystemEntityType typeSync(String path, {bool followLinks = true}) {
  return _getTypeSync(_toUtf8Array(path), followLinks);
}
