Synopsis:
| CALL LSTAT(NAME, VALUES [, STATUS]) |
|---|
| STATUS = LSTAT(NAME, VALUES) |
Description:
LSTAT is identical to STAT — Get file status, except that if path is a symbolic link, then the operation is performed on the link itself, not the file that it refers to.
The elements in VALUES are the same as described by STAT — Get file status.
This intrinsic is provided in both subroutine and function forms; however, only one form can be used in any given program unit.
Class:
Subroutine, function
Arguments:
| NAME | The type shall be CHARACTER of the default kind, a valid path within the file system. |
|---|---|
