  • Method Details

    • stat

      WindowsFileInfo stat(File file) throws NativeException
      Returns basic information about the given file. Returns whatever file details can be efficiently calculated in a single system call, which is more efficient that querying these details separately.

      When the file references a symlink, details about the symlink is returned, not the target of the symlink.

      Specified by:
      stat in interface Files
      Parameters:
      file - The path of the file to get details of. Follows symlinks to the parent directory of this file.
      Returns:
      Details of the file. Returns details with type FileInfo.Type.Missing for a file that does not exist.
      Throws:
      NativeException - On failure to query the file information.
      FilePermissionException - When the user has insufficient permissions to query the file information
