Greetings! This GCL code has not changed in ages either to my
knowledge. On BSD systems, the rename C call is used, which can fail
for the following reasons:
EACCES Write permission is denied for the directory containing oldpath
or newpath, or, search permission is denied for one of the
directories in the path prefix of oldpath or newpath, or oldpath
is a directory and does not allow write permission (needed to
update the .. entry). (See also path_resolution(2).)
EBUSY The rename fails because oldpath or newpath is a directory that
is in use by some process (perhaps as current working direc-
tory, or as root directory, or because it was open for reading)
or is in use by the system (for example as mount point), while
the system considers this an error. (Note that there is no
requirement to return EBUSY in such cases -- there is nothing
wrong with doing the rename anyway -- but it is allowed to
return EBUSY if the system cannot otherwise handle such situa-
tions.)
EFAULT oldpath or newpath points outside your accessible address space.
EINVAL The new pathname contained a path prefix of the old, or, more
generally, an attempt was made to make a directory a subdirec-
tory of itself.
EISDIR newpath is an existing directory, but oldpath is not a directory.
ELOOP Too many symbolic links were encountered in resolving oldpath or
newpath.
EMLINK oldpath already has the maximum number of links to it, or it was
a directory and the directory containing newpath has the max-
imum number of links.
ENAMETOOLONG
oldpath or newpath was too long.
ENOENT A directory component in oldpath or newpath does not exist or
is a dangling symbolic link.
ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory was available.
ENOSPC The device containing the file has no room for the new directory
entry.
ENOTDIR
A component used as a directory in oldpath or newpath is not, in
fact, a directory. Or, oldpath is a directory, and newpath
exists but is not a directory.
ENOTEMPTY or EEXIST
newpath is a non-empty directory, i.e., contains entries other
than "." and "..".
EPERM or EACCES
The directory containing oldpath has the sticky bit (S_ISVTX)
set and the process's effective user ID is neither the user ID
of the file to be deleted nor that of the directory containing
it, and the process is not privileged (Linux: does not have the
CAP_FOWNER capability); or newpath is an existing file and
the directory containing it has the sticky bit set and the pro-
cess's effective user ID is neither the user ID of the file to be
replaced nor that of the directory containing it, and the
process is not privileged (Linux: does not have the
CAP_FOWNER capability); or the filesystem containing pathname does not
support renaming of the type requested.
EROFS The file is on a read-only filesystem.
EXDEV oldpath and newpath are not on the same mounted filesystem.
(Linux permits a filesystem to be mounted at multiple points, but
rename(2) does not work across different mount points, even if
the same filesystem is mounted on both.)
from file.d:
#ifdef HAVE_RENAME
if (rename(filename, newfilename) < 0)
FEerror("Cannot rename the file ~S to ~S.",
2, vs_base[0], vs_base[1]);
#else
sprintf(command, "mv %s %s", filename, newfilename);
system(command);
#endif
Would be great to export errno for all such system calls.
Take care,
