Since
1.1
Enumerator
EINA_XATTR_INSERT 

This is the default behavior, it will either create or replace the extended attribute.

This will only succeed if the extended attribute previously existed.

This will only succeed if the extended attribute wasn't previously set.

EINA_XATTR_FLAGS_INSERT 

This is the default behavior, it will either create or replace the extended attribute.

◆ eina_xattr_ls()

EINA_API Eina_Iterator * eina_xattr_ls ( const char *  file)

Gets an iterator that lists all extended attribute of a file.

Parameters
[in]fileThe filename to retrieve the extended attribute list from.
Returns
an iterator.

The iterator will not allocate any data during the iteration step, so you need to copy them yourself if you need.

Gets an iterator that list all extended attribute value related to a fd.

Parameters
[in]fileThe filename to retrieve the extended attribute list from.
Returns
An iterator.

The iterator will not allocate any data during the iteration step, so you need to copy them yourself if you need. The iterator will provide an Eina_Xattr structure.
