NAME

stat, lstat, fstat − get file status

SYNOPSIS

integer function stat (name, statb)
character∗(∗) name
integer statb(13) integer function lstat (name, statb)
character∗(∗) name
integer statb(13) integer function fstat (lunit, statb)
integer statb(13)

DESCRIPTION

These routines return detailed information about a file. 
Stat and lstat do the inquiry by filename.
fstat does the inquiry by FORTRAN logical lunit.
The value of each function is zero if successful, and an error code otherwise.
The variable ‘statb’ receives the stat structure for the file. Calling Sequences: stat :
integer stat, statb(13)
character name∗(∗)
ierr = stat ( name, statb ) fstat :
integer fstat, logunit, statb(13)
ierr = fstat ( logunit, statb ) lstat :
integer lstat, statb(13)
character name∗(∗)
ierr = lstat ( name, statb )

The meaning of the information returned in array statb is as described for the structure stat under stat(2).
Spare values are not included. The order is shown below:

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
