SDL_GetPathInfo

Get information about a filesystem path.

Header File

Defined in <SDL3/SDL_filesystem.h>

Syntax

bool SDL_GetPathInfo(const char *path, SDL_PathInfo *info);

Function Parameters

const char *	path	the path to query.
SDL_PathInfo *	info	a pointer filled in with information about the path, or NULL to check for the existence of a file.

Return Value

(bool) Returns true on success or false if the file doesn't exist, or another failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

Remarks

Symlinks, on filesystems that support them, are always followed, so you will always get information on what the symlink eventually points to, and not the symlink itself.

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

Version

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
