Filesystem manipulation operations.
This module contains basic methods to manipulate the contents of the local
filesystem. All methods in this module represent cross-platform filesystem
operations. Extra platform-specific functionality can be found in the
extension traits of std::os::$platform.
Structs
Representation of the various timestamps on a file.
A builder used to create directories in various manners.
An object providing access to an open file on the filesystem.
A structure representing a type of file with accessors for each file type.
