stat()/lstat() problem (?)
Hi,
here is my question/problem (see the example program below):
-//
#include stdio.h
#include sys/types.h
#include sys/stat.h
#include errno.h
static int is_dir(char * dr)
{
struct stat st;
if(stat(dr, st) == -1)
{
perror(stat);
return -1;
}
if(lstat(dr, st) == -1)
{
perror(lstat);
return -1;
}
}
int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
int rc;
rc=is_dir(//bin);
rc=is_dir(/bin);
}
-//
With my version of cygwin(Windows NT Ver 4.0 Build 1381 Service Pack 6 -
cygwin 1.5.9-1)
the first call to is_dir() produces an error(stat: No such file or
directory)
BUT the same code was compiled and run on Linux (RH9) and Sun (Solaris2.8)
and
produces no errors !!
The question is:
- is the behavior on Linux/Solaris normal ? I fact there ain't a '//bin'
only a '/bin',
but even all the shells treat them as representing the same path (BTW 'cd
//bin' on
cygwin/bash doesn't work ...)
- is it an error in cygwin ? Did all pathes (oops is my english very clear
?) have to
treat dupplicated '/' as single '/' ? Is the notion of a pathname normalized
somewhere
(maybe posix ?) ?
