alphasort64

Name

alphasort64 -- compare two directory entries alphabetically (LSB deprecated)

Synopsis

#include <dirent.h>

int alphasort64((const struct dirent64 **a), (const struct dirent64 **b));

Description

alphasort64 is expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB; applications should provide their own routine to sort filenames. [1]

alphasort compares two struct dirent64s alphabetically. This function is like alphasort but it uses the 64-bit dirent structure.

Notes

[1]

The LSB never has contained scandir64; alphasort64 is customarily used with it.
