Detailed Description

Macro Definition Documentation

#define APR_FILEPATH_ENCODING_LOCALE   1

The FilePath character encoding is locale-dependent

#define APR_FILEPATH_ENCODING_UNKNOWN   0

The FilePath character encoding is unknown

#define APR_FILEPATH_ENCODING_UTF8   2

The FilePath character encoding is UTF-8

#define APR_FILEPATH_NATIVE   0x10

Return the file system's native path format (e.g. path delimiters of ':' on MacOS9, '\' on Win32, etc.)

#define APR_FILEPATH_NOTABOVEROOT   0x01

Cause apr_filepath_merge to fail if addpath is above rootpath

Bug:
in APR 0.9 and 1.x, this flag's behavior is undefined if the rootpath is NULL or empty. In APR 2.0 this should be changed to imply NOTABSOLUTE if the rootpath is NULL or empty.
#define APR_FILEPATH_NOTABSOLUTE   0x08

Fail apr_filepath_merge if the merged path is absolute

#define APR_FILEPATH_NOTRELATIVE   0x04

Fail apr_filepath_merge if the merged path is relative

#define APR_FILEPATH_SECUREROOT   0x03

Cause apr_filepath_merge to fail if addpath is above rootpath, even given a rootpath /foo/bar and an addpath ../bar/bash

#define APR_FILEPATH_SECUREROOTTEST   0x02

internal: Only meaningful with APR_FILEPATH_NOTABOVEROOT

#define APR_FILEPATH_TRUENAME   0x20

Resolve the true case of existing directories and file elements of addpath, (resolving any aliases on Win32) and append a proper trailing slash if a directory

Function Documentation

apr_status_t apr_filepath_encoding ( int *  style,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Determine the encoding used internally by the FilePath functions

Parameters
stylepoints to a variable which receives the encoding style flag
pthe pool to allocate any working storage
Remarks
Use apr_os_locale_encoding and/or apr_os_default_encoding to get the name of the path encoding if it's not UTF-8.
apr_status_t apr_filepath_get ( char **  path,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Return the default file path (for relative file names)

Parameters
paththe default path string returned
flagsoptional flag APR_FILEPATH_NATIVE to retrieve the default file path in os-native format.
pthe pool to allocate the default path string from
apr_status_t apr_filepath_list_merge ( char **  liststr,
apr_array_header_t pathelts,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Merge a list of search path components into a single search path

Parameters
liststrthe returned search path; may be NULL if pathelts is empty
patheltsthe components of the search path
pthe pool to allocate the search path from
Remarks
emtpy strings in the source array are ignored.
the path separator in liststr is system specific; e.g., ':' on Unix, ';' on Windows, etc.
apr_status_t apr_filepath_list_split ( apr_array_header_t **  pathelts,
const char *  liststr,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Split a search path into separate components

Parameters
patheltsthe returned components of the search path
liststrthe search path (e.g., getenv("PATH"))
pthe pool to allocate the array and path components from
Remarks
empty path components do not become part of pathelts.
the path separator in liststr is system specific; e.g., ':' on Unix, ';' on Windows, etc.
apr_status_t apr_filepath_merge ( char **  newpath,
const char *  rootpath,
const char *  addpath,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Merge additional file path onto the previously processed rootpath

Parameters
newpaththe merged paths returned
rootpaththe root file path (NULL uses the current working path)
addpaththe path to add to the root path
flagsthe desired APR_FILEPATH_ rules to apply when merging
pthe pool to allocate the new path string from
Remarks
if the flag APR_FILEPATH_TRUENAME is given, and the addpath contains wildcard characters ('*', '?') on platforms that don't support such characters within filenames, the paths will be merged, but the result code will be APR_EPATHWILD, and all further segments will not reflect the true filenames including the wildcard and following segments.
apr_status_t apr_filepath_root ( const char **  rootpath,
const char **  filepath,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Extract the rootpath from the given filepath

Parameters
rootpaththe root file path returned with APR_SUCCESS or APR_EINCOMPLETE
filepaththe pathname to parse for its root component
flagsthe desired rules to apply, from
     APR_FILEPATH_NATIVE    Use native path separators (e.g. '\' on Win32)
     APR_FILEPATH_TRUENAME  Tests that the root exists, and makes it proper
pthe pool to allocate the new path string from
Remarks
on return, filepath points to the first non-root character in the given filepath. In the simplest example, given a filepath of "/foo", returns the rootpath of "/" and filepath points at "foo". This is far more complex on other platforms, which will canonicalize the root form to a consistant format, given the APR_FILEPATH_TRUENAME flag, and also test for the validity of that root (e.g., that a drive d:/ or network share //machine/foovol/). The function returns APR_ERELATIVE if filepath isn't rooted (an error), APR_EINCOMPLETE if the root path is ambiguous (but potentially legitimate, e.g. "/" on Windows is incomplete because it doesn't specify the drive letter), or APR_EBADPATH if the root is simply invalid. APR_SUCCESS is returned if filepath is an absolute path.
apr_status_t apr_filepath_set ( const char *  path,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Set the default file path (for relative file names)

Parameters
paththe default path returned
pthe pool to allocate any working storage
