file_status filesystem::symlink_status(const path& p); file_status filesystem::symlink_status(const path& p, error_code& ec) noexcept;

1

#

Effects: Same as status, above, except that the attributes of p are determined as if by using POSIX lstat to obtain a POSIX struct stat.

2

#

Let prms denote the result of (m & perms​::​mask), where m is determined as if by converting the st_mode member of the obtained struct stat to the type perms.

3

#

Returns: Same as status, above, except that if the attributes indicate a symbolic link, as if by POSIX S_ISLNK, returns file_status(file_type​::​symlink, prms).

The signature with argument ec returns file_status(file_type​::​none) if an error occurs.

4

#

Throws: As specified in [fs.err.report].

5

#

Remarks: Pathname resolution terminates if p names a symbolic link.
