QlgLstat()--Get File or Link Information (using NLS-enabled path name)

 #include <sys/stat.h>

 int QlgLstat(Qlg_Path_Name_T *path,struct stat *buf);  

The QlgLstat() function, like the lstat() function, gets status information about a specified file and places it in the area of memory pointed to by buf. The difference is that the QlgLstat() function takes a pointer to a Qlg_Path_Name_T structure, while lstat() takes a pointer to a character string.

Limited information on the path parameter is provided here. For more information on the path parameter and for a discussion of other parameters, authorities required, return values, and related information, see lstat()--Get File or Link Information.

Parameters

path

(Input) A pointer to a Qlg_Path_Name_T structure that contains a path name or a pointer to a path name of the file. For more information on the Qlg_Path_Name_T structure, see Path name format.
