# Struct ethcore_util::standard::fs::FileType 1.1.0 [−] [src]

    pub struct FileType(_);

A structure representing a type of file with accessors for each file type. It is returned by `Metadata::file_type` method.

## Methods

### `impl FileType`

#### `fn is_dir(&self) -> bool`

Test whether this file type represents a directory.

# Examples

    use std::fs;

    let metadata = try!(fs::metadata("foo.txt"));
    let file_type = metadata.file_type();

    assert_eq!(file_type.is_dir(), false);

#### `fn is_file(&self) -> bool`

Test whether this file type represents a regular file.

# Examples

    use std::fs;

    let metadata = try!(fs::metadata("foo.txt"));
    let file_type = metadata.file_type();

    assert_eq!(file_type.is_file(), true);

#### `fn is_symlink(&self) -> bool`

Test whether this file type represents a symbolic link.

# Examples

    use std::fs;

    let metadata = try!(fs::metadata("foo.txt"));
    let file_type = metadata.file_type();

    assert_eq!(file_type.is_symlink(), false);

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
