This should be something that somebody has already done.... Does any body have a perl script that does "lsflags" -- the inverse of cflags? [I want to be able to display the values for both mode and flags for any given file. Preferrably in symbolic form rather than strickly numeric chmod form.]
Stat apparently only returns 13 elements even though the stat structure contains 4 additional ones: # u_int32_t st_flags; /* user defined flags for file */ # u_int32_t st_gen; /* file generation number */ # int32_t st_lspare; # int64_t st_qspare[2]; >From what I can tell "st_flags" is where the HFS+ file system stores the "immutable" flags and the like (the lock box which only shows up under get-info). Also from /usr/include/sys/stat.h: /* * Definitions of flags stored in file flags word. * * Super-user and owner changeable flags. */ #define UF_SETTABLE 0x0000ffff /* mask of owner changeable flags */ #define UF_NODUMP 0x00000001 /* do not dump file */ #define UF_IMMUTABLE 0x00000002 /* file may not be changed */ #define UF_APPEND 0x00000004 /* writes to file may only append */ #define UF_OPAQUE 0x00000008 /* directory is opaque wrt. union */ /* * Super-user changeable flags. */ #define SF_SETTABLE 0xffff0000 /* mask of superuser changeable flags */ #define SF_ARCHIVED 0x00010000 /* file is archived */ #define SF_IMMUTABLE 0x00020000 /* file may not be changed */ #define SF_APPEND 0x00040000 /* writes to file may only append */ -- T.T.F.N.
