[Gambas-user] Inode from file and Gambas

[vuott at tutanota.com]

...or you could use the "Extern" resource:

Library "libc:6"

Public Struct stat_
  st_dev As Long
  st_ino As Long
  st_nlink As Long
  st_mode As Integer
  st_uid As Integer
  st_gid As Integer
  __pad0 As Integer
  st_rdev As Long
  st_size As Long
  st_blksize As Long
  st_blocks As Long
  st_atime As Long
  st_atimensec As Long
  st_mtime As Long
  st_mtimensec As Long
  st_ctime As Long
  st_ctimensec As Long
  __glibc_reserved[3] As Long
End Struct

Private Const _STAT_VER_LINUX As Integer = 1

' int __xstat (_STAT_VER, __path, __statbuf)
' Get file attributes for FILE and put them in BUF.
Private Extern __xstat(_STAT_VER As Integer, __path As String, __statbuf As Stat_) As Integer


Public Sub Main()

  Dim i As Integer
  Dim st As New Stat_

  i = __xstat(_STAT_VER_LINUX, "/path/of/file", st)
  If i < 0 Then Error.Raise("Error !")

   Print st.st_ino

End
