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

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

Function to compare two struct dirent64s alphabetically. This function is like alphasort but it uses the 64bit dirent structure.

Notes

[1]

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