From 137fe72eca6923a00381a3ca9f0e7672c1f85e3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Weimer Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 09:33:07 +0200 Subject: glob: Simplify the interface for the GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC callback gl_readdir Previously, application code had to set up the d_namlen member if the target supported it, involving conditional compilation. After this change, glob will use the length of the string in d_name instead of d_namlen to determine the file name length. All glibc targets provide the d_type and d_ino members, and setting them as needed for gl_readdir is straightforward. Changing the behavior with regards to d_ino is left to a future cleanup. --- manual/examples/mkdirent.c | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 42 insertions(+) create mode 100644 manual/examples/mkdirent.c (limited to 'manual/examples') diff --git a/manual/examples/mkdirent.c b/manual/examples/mkdirent.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..f8400f46d7 --- /dev/null +++ b/manual/examples/mkdirent.c @@ -0,0 +1,42 @@ +/* Example for creating a struct dirent object for use with glob. + Copyright (C) 2016 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + + This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or + modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License + as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 + of the License, or (at your option) any later version. + + This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
