File.Stat

Returns the open file's FileInfo, read from the handle even if the file was renamed.

Notes

• The FileInfo of the open file, from the handle -- the same fields Stat( path ) gives, for the object this File has open even if its name has since changed.
• HasCreated( ) is false on POSIX.

Examples

#import "std/fs"
using fs

dim as ustring dir_ = CreateTempDir( "tkdoc" ).Value( )
dim as ustring p = PathJoin( dir_, "f.txt" )
dim as File f
f.Create( p )
f.WriteUtf8( "abc" )
dim as FsResultInfo r = f.Stat( )
print r.Value( ).IsFile( ), r.Value( ).Size( )    '' true 3
