issetuid
issetuid(path) -> Bool
Returns true if path has the setuid flag set, false otherwise.
Examples
-
Check if a file has the setuid flag set:
julia> issetuid("/path/to/file") trueThis example checks if the file at the given path has the setuid flag set.
-
Verify if a directory has the setuid flag set:
julia> issetuid("/path/to/directory") falseIt returns
falsesince directories typically do not have the setuid flag set. - Handle non-existent paths:
julia> issetuid("/non/existent/path") falseWhen the specified path does not exist,
issetuidreturnsfalse.
Common mistake example:
julia> issetuid("/etc/passwd")
ERROR: IOError: permission denied (EACCES)
In this example, the user does not have the necessary permissions to access the file at /etc/passwd. It's important to ensure that the user has sufficient privileges to avoid such errors when using issetuid.
