cwk_path_get_segment_type

(since v1.0.0)
Gets the type of the submitted path segment.

Description

enum cwk_segment_type cwk_path_get_segment_type(const struct cwk_segment *segment);

This function inspects the contents of the segment and determines the type of it. Currently, there are three types CWK_NORMAL, CWK_CURRENT and CWK_BACK. A CWK_NORMAL segment is a normal folder or file entry. A CWK_CURRENT is a “./” and a CWK_BACK a “../” segment.

Parameters

segment: The segment which will be inspected.

Return Value

Returns the type of the segment.

Example

#include <cwalk.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  struct cwk_segment segment;

  if(!cwk_path_get_first_segment("/../funny/test/path.txt", &segment)) {
    printf("Path doesn't have any segments.");
    return EXIT_FAILURE;
  }
  
  if(cwk_path_get_segment_type(&segment) == CWK_BACK) {
    printf("The segment type is CWK_BACK.");
  }
  
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Ouput:

The segment type is CWK_BACK.
