uintmax_t filesystem::file_size(const path& p); uintmax_t filesystem::file_size(const path& p, error_code& ec) noexcept;

Returns:

• If is_regular_file(p), the size in bytes of the filep resolves to, determined as if by the value of the POSIX stat class member st_size obtained as if by POSIX stat.
• Otherwise, the result is implementation-defined.

The signature with argument ec returns static_cast<uintmax_t>(-1)if an error occurs.
