STAT64(3F)							    STAT64(3F)

NAME
       stat64, lstat64, fstat64 - get file status for long files

SYNOPSIS
       integer*4 function stat64(name,statb)
       character*(*) name
       integer*8 statb(13)

       integer*4 function lstat64(name,statb)
       character*(*) name
       integer*8 statb(13)

       integer*4 function fstat64(lunit,statb)
       integer*8 statb(13)

DESCRIPTION
       These routines return detailed information about a file.

       They are versions of the corresponding routines stat, lstat, and fstat,
       that utilize a 64-bit integer status array to return information	 about
       long files (Solaris 2.6 and 2.7).

       The functions stat64 and lstat64 do the query by filename.

       The function fstat64 does the query by FORTRAN logical unit lunit.

       The  value  of  each  function is zero if successful, and an error code
       otherwise.

       The variable statb receives the status structure for the file.

       Calling Sequences:

       stat64:
       integer*4 stat64
       integer*8 statb(13)
       character name*(*)
       ierr = stat64 ( name, statb )

       fstat64:
       integer*4 fstat64, logunit
       integer*8 statb(13)
       ierr = fstat64 ( logunit, statb )

       lstat64:
       integer*4 lstat64
       integer*8 statb(13)
       character name*(*)
       ierr = lstat64 ( name, statb )

       The meaning of the information  returned	 in  the  array	 statb	is  as
       described for the structure stat under stat(2).

       Spare values are not included.  The order is:

		 statb(1)	 device inode resides on
		 statb(2)	 this inode's number
		 statb(3)	 protection
		 statb(4)	 number of hard links to the file
		 statb(5)	 user id of owner
		 statb(6)	 group id of owner
		 statb(7)	 the device type, for inode that is device
		 statb(8)	 total size of file
		 statb(9)	 file last access time
		 statb(10)	 file last modify time
		 statb(11)	 file last status change time
		 statb(12)	 optimal blocksize for file system i/o ops
		 statb(13)	 actual number of blocks allocated

NOTE
       stat64 calls stat(2) in the libc library, while lstat64 calls lstat(2).
       For the differences between these two libc functions, see  the  stat(2)
       man page. In brief, they differ when the named file is a symbolic link;
       lstat64 will return information	about  the  link,  while  stat64  will
       return information about the file the link references.

FILES
       libfui.a

BUGS
       Path   names   cannot   be   longer   than  MAXPATHLEN  as  defined  in
       <sys/param.h>.
