BloombergLP::bdls::FilesystemUtil::isRegularFile

Synopses

Declared in <bdls_filesystemutil.h>

Return true if there currently exists a regular file at the specified path, and false otherwise. If there is a symbolic link at path, follow it only if the optionally specified followLinksFlag is true (otherwise, return false as the symbolic link itself is not a regular file irrespective of the file to which it points). Platform-specific note: On POSIX, this is a positive test on the "regular file" mode; on Windows, this is a negative test on the "directory" attribute, i.e., on Windows, everything that exists and is not a directory is a regular file. The parameterized STRING_TYPE must be one of bsl::string, std::string, std::pmr::string (if supported), bsl::string_view, or bslstl::StringRef.
