File and Path Function
int lstat(const char *filename, struct stat *buf);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The lstat function is like stat , except that it does not follow symbolic links. If filename is the name of a symbolic link, lstat returns information about the link itself; otherwise lstat works like stat .
lstat returns 0 on success and -1
on failure, setting the global errno variable with the error value.
I18n Issues
On ANSI UTF-16 platforms, use a conversion function to convert the
wide-character string to a multibyte-character string and then call lstat .
See Pathnames for a discussion of path and filename considerations in
an internationalized application.
