Enum Kind

#[repr(u8)]
pub enum Kind {
    File = 0,
    Directory = 1,
    BlockDevice = 2,
    CharacterDevice = 3,
    Pipe = 4,
    Socket = 5,
    SymbolicLink = 6,
}

Enumeration of file system object types.

This enum represents the different types of objects that can exist in a file system. Each variant corresponds to a specific type of file system entity with its own characteristics and behaviors.

Examples

use file_system::Type_type;

let file_type = Type_type::File;
let dir_type = Type_type::Directory;

// Types can be compared
assert_ne!(file_type, dir_type);

// Types can be displayed
println!("Object type: {}", file_type); // Prints "Object type: File"

Variants

File = 0

Regular file containing data

Directory = 1

Directory containing other file system objects

BlockDevice = 2

Block-oriented device (e.g., disk drives, storage devices)

CharacterDevice = 3

Character-oriented device (e.g., terminals, serial ports)

Pipe = 4

Named pipe (FIFO) for inter-process communication

Socket = 5

Unix domain socket for inter-process communication

SymbolicLink = 6

Symbolic link pointing to another file system object

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Kind

fn clone(&self) -> Kind

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Kind

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Kind

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Ord for Kind

fn cmp(&self, other: &Kind) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl PartialEq for Kind

fn eq(&self, other: &Kind) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl PartialOrd for Kind

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Kind) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.
