glob

glob.h(3HEAD)							      Headers							     glob.h(3HEAD)

NAME

       glob.h, glob - pathname pattern-matching types

SYNOPSIS

       #include <glob.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The <glob.h> header defines the structures and symbolic constants used by the glob(3C).

       The structure type glob_t contains the following members:

	 size_t gl_pathc       /* count of paths matched by pattern */
	 char	**gl_pathv     /* pointer to a list of matched
				  pathnames */
	 size_t gl_offs        /* lots to reserve at the beginning
				  of gl_pathv */

       The following constants are provided as values for the flags argument:

       GLOB_APPEND	Append generated pathnames to those previously obtained.

       GLOB_DOOFFS	Specify how many null pointers to add to the beginning of gl_pathv.

       GLOB_ERR 	Cause glob() to return on error.

       GLOB_MARK	Each pathname that is a directory that matches pattern has a slash appended.

       GLOB_NOCHECK	If pattern does not match any  pathname, then return a list consisting of only pattern.

       GLOB_NOESCAPE	Disable backslash escaping.

       GLOB_NOSORT	Do not sort the pathnames returned.

       The following constants are defined as error return values:

       GLOB_ABORTED    The scan was stopped because GLOB_ERR was set or (*errfunc)() returned non-zero.

       GLOB_NOMATCH    The pattern does not match any existing pathname, and GLOB_NOCHECK was not set in flags.

       GLOB_NOSPACE    An attempt to allocate memory failed.

       GLOB_NOSYS      Reserved.
