-- Directory operations
-- This package provides routines for manipulating directories. 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
-- Note: support on OpenVMS is limited to the support of Unix-style
-- directory names (OpenVMS native directory format is not supported).
-- Read individual entries for more specific notes on OpenVMS support.
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.
-- On OpenVMS, only Unix style path names are supported, not VMS style,
-- but the directory and file names are not case sensitive.
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;
Recursive : Boolean := False);
-- Remove the directory named Dir_Name. If Recursive is set to True, then
-- Remove_Dir removes all the subdirectories and files that are in
-- 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. Note that the contents of Path is case-sensitive on
-- systems that have case-sensitive file names (like Unix), and
-- non-case-sensitive on systems where the file system is also non-
-- case-sensitive (such as Windows, and OpenVMS).
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 and OpenVMS.
function File_Extension (Path : Path_Name) return String;
-- Return the file extension. This is defined as the string after the
-- last dot, including the dot itself. For example, if the file name
-- is "file1.xyz.adq", then the returned value would be ".adq". If no
-- dot is present in the file name, or the last character of the file
-- name is a dot, then the null string is returned.
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,
-- Use '/' as the directory separator. The default on Unix systems
-- and on OpenVMS.
DOS,
-- Use '\' as the directory separator. The default on Windows.
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.
type Environment_Style is
(UNIX,
-- Environment variables and OpenVMS logical names use $ as prefix and
-- can use curly brackets as in ${HOME}/mydir. If there is no closing
-- curly bracket for an opening one then translation is done, so for
-- example ${VAR/toto is returned as ${VAR/toto.
DOS,
-- Environment variables uses % as prefix and suffix
-- (e.g. %HOME%/mydir). The name DOS refer to "DOS-like" environment.
-- This includes al Windows systems.
Both,
-- Recognize both forms described above.
System_Default);
-- Uses either UNIX on Unix and OpenVMS systems, or DOS on Windows and
-- OS/2 depending on the running environment.
function Expand_Path
(Path : Path_Name;
Mode : Environment_Style := System_Default) return Path_Name;
-- Returns Path with environment variables (or logical names on OpenVMS)
-- 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 and Mode is UNIX. If an environment
-- variable does not exists the variable will be replaced by the empty
-- string. Two dollar or percent signs are replaced by a single
-- dollar/percent sign. Note that a variable must start with a letter.

-- 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.
