Enum `EntryType`

pub enum EntryType

Indicate the type of content described by a header.

This is returned by [crate::Header::entry_type()] and should be used to distinguish between types of content.

Variants

Regular: Regular file
Link: Hard link
Symlink: Symbolic link
Char: Character device
Block: Block device
Directory: Directory
Fifo: Named pipe (fifo)
Continuous: Implementation-defined 'high-performance' type, treated as regular file
GNULongName: GNU extension - long file name
GNULongLink: GNU extension - long link name (link target)
GNUSparse: GNU extension - sparse file
XGlobalHeader: Global extended header
XHeader: Extended Header

Implementations

`impl EntryType`

fn new(byte: u8) -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type from a raw byte.

Note that the other named constructors of entry type may be more appropriate to create a file type from.

fn as_byte(&self) -> u8

Returns the raw underlying byte that this entry type represents.

fn file() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a regular file.

fn hard_link() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a hard link.

fn symlink() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a symlink.

fn character_special() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a character special device.

fn block_special() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a block special device.

fn dir() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a directory.

fn fifo() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a FIFO.

fn contiguous() -> EntryType

Creates a new entry type representing a contiguous file.

fn is_file(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a regular file.

fn is_hard_link(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a hard link.

fn is_symlink(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a symlink.

fn is_character_special(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a character special device.

fn is_block_special(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a block special device.

fn is_dir(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a directory.

fn is_fifo(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a FIFO.

fn is_contiguous(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a contiguous file.

fn is_gnu_longname(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a GNU long name header.

fn is_gnu_sparse(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a GNU sparse header.

fn is_gnu_longlink(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents a GNU long link header.

fn is_pax_global_extensions(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents PAX global extensions, that should affect all following entries. For more, see PAX.

fn is_pax_local_extensions(&self) -> bool

Returns whether this type represents PAX local extensions; these only affect the current entry. For more, see PAX.
