A directory -- can be treated as a file, using open and close routines, and a scanning -- routine is provided for iterating through the entries in a directory. -- See also child package GNAT.Directory_Operations.Iteration with Ada.Strings.Maps; package GNAT.Directory_Operations is subtype Dir_Name_Str is String; -- A subtype used in this package to represent string values that are -- directory names. A directory name is a prefix for files that appear -- with in the directory. This means that for UNIX systems, the string -- includes a final '/', and for DOS-like systems, it includes a final -- '\' character. It can also include drive letters if the operating -- system provides for this. The final '/' or '\' in a Dir_Name_Str is -- optional when passed as a procedure or function in parameter. type Dir_Type is limited private; -- A value used to reference a directory. Conceptually this value includes -- the identity of the directory, and a sequential position within it. Null_Dir : constant Dir_Type; -- Represent the value for an uninitialized or closed directory Directory_Error : exception; -- Exception raised if the directory cannot be opened, read, closed, -- created or if it is not possible to change the current execution -- environment directory. Dir_Separator : constant Character; -- Running system default directory separator -------------------------------- -- Basic Directory operations -- -------------------------------- procedure Change_Dir (Dir_Name : Dir_Name_Str); -- Changes the working directory of the current execution environment -- to the directory named by Dir_Name. Raises Directory_Error if Dir_Name -- does not exist. procedure Make_Dir (Dir_Name : Dir_Name_Str); -- Create a new directory named Dir_Name. Raises Directory_Error if -- Dir_Name cannot be created. procedure Remove_Dir (Dir_Name : Dir_Name_Str); -- Remove the directory named Dir_Name. Raises Directory_Error if Dir_Name -- cannot be removed. function Get_Current_Dir return Dir_Name_Str; -- Returns the current working directory for the execution environment. procedure Get_Current_Dir (Dir : out Dir_Name_Str; Last : out Natural); -- Returns the current working directory for the execution environment -- The name is returned in Dir_Name. Last is the index in Dir_Name such -- that Dir_Name (Last) is the last character written. If Dir_Name is -- too small for the directory name, the name will be truncated before -- being copied to Dir_Name. ------------------------- -- Pathname Operations -- ------------------------- subtype Path_Name is String; -- All routines using Path_Name handle both styles (UNIX and DOS) of -- directory separators (either slash or back slash). function Dir_Name (Path : Path_Name) return Dir_Name_Str; -- Returns directory name for Path. This is similar to the UNIX dirname -- command. Everything after the last directory separator is removed. If -- there is no directory separator the current working directory is -- returned. function Base_Name (Path : Path_Name; Suffix : String := "") return String; -- Any directory prefix is removed. If Suffix is non-empty and is a -- suffix of Path, it is removed. This is equivalent to the UNIX basename -- command. The following rule is always true: -- -- 'Path' and 'Dir_Name (Path) & Directory_Separator & Base_Name (Path)' -- represent the same file. -- -- This function is not case-sensitive on systems that have a non -- case-sensitive file system like Windows, OS/2 and VMS. function File_Extension (Path : Path_Name) return String; -- Return the file extension. This is the string after the last dot -- character in File_Name (Path). It returns the empty string if no -- extension is found. The returned value does contains the file -- extension separator (dot character). function File_Name (Path : Path_Name) return String; -- Returns the file name and the file extension if present. It removes all -- path information. This is equivalent to Base_Name with default Extension -- value. type Path_Style is (UNIX, DOS, System_Default); function Format_Pathname (Path : Path_Name; Style : Path_Style := System_Default) return Path_Name; -- Removes all double directory separator and converts all '\' to '/' if -- Style is UNIX and converts all '/' to '\' if Style is set to DOS. This -- function will help to provide a consistent naming scheme running for -- different environments. If style is set to System_Default the routine -- will use the default directory separator on the running environment. function Expand_Path (Path : Path_Name) return Path_Name; -- Returns Path with environment variables (string preceded by a dollar -- sign) replaced by the current environment variable value. For example, -- $HOME/mydir will be replaced by /home/joe/mydir if $HOME environment -- variable is set to /home/joe. The variable can be surrounded by the -- characters '{' and '}' (curly bracket) if needed as in ${HOME}/mydir. -- If an environment variable does not exists the variable will be replaced -- by the empty string. Two dollar signs are replaced by a single dollar -- sign. Note that a variable must start with a letter. If there is no -- closing curly bracket for an opening one there is no translation done, -- so for example ${VAR/toto is returned as ${VAR/toto. --------------- -- Iterators -- --------------- procedure Open (Dir : out Dir_Type; Dir_Name : Dir_Name_Str); -- Opens the directory named by Dir_Name and returns a Dir_Type value -- that refers to this directory, and is positioned at the first entry. -- Raises Directory_Error if Dir_Name cannot be accessed. In that case -- Dir will be set to Null_Dir. procedure Close (Dir : in out Dir_Type); -- Closes the directory stream refered to by Dir. After calling Close -- Is_Open will return False. Dir will be set to Null_Dir. -- Raises Directory_Error if Dir has not be opened (Dir = Null_Dir). function Is_Open (Dir : Dir_Type) return Boolean; -- Returns True if Dir is open, or False otherwise. procedure Read (Dir : in out Dir_Type; Str : out String; Last : out Natural); -- Reads the next entry from the directory and sets Str to the name -- of that entry. Last is the index in Str such that Str (Last) is the -- last character written. Last is 0 when there are no more files in the -- directory. If Str is too small for the file name, the file name will -- be truncated before being copied to Str. The list of files returned -- includes directories in systems providing a hierarchical directory -- structure, including . (the current directory) and .. (the parent -- directory) in systems providing these entries. The directory is -- returned in target-OS form. Raises Directory_Error if Dir has not -- be opened (Dir = Null_Dir). function Read_Is_Thread_Safe return Boolean; -- Indicates if procedure Read is thread safe. On systems where the -- target system supports this functionality, Read is thread safe, -- and this function returns True (e.g. this will be the case on any -- UNIX or UNIX-like system providing a correct implementation of the -- function readdir_r). If the system cannot provide a thread safe -- implementation of Read, then this function returns False. private type Dir_Type_Value; type Dir_Type is access Dir_Type_Value; Null_Dir : constant Dir_Type := null; pragma Import (C, Dir_Separator, "__gnat_dir_separator"); Dir_Seps : constant Ada.Strings.Maps.Character_Set := Ada.Strings.Maps.To_Set ("/\"); -- UNIX and DOS style directory separators. end GNAT.Directory_Operations;
