Member Function Documentation

string convert_to_string ( bool resolve_id_names = false ) const

std::string convert_to_string(bool resolve_id_names=false) const;

Optionally convert id's into their string names (slow). The string looks like this:
"rwxrwxrwx 12/28/57 01:02:03 owner_id group_id size name".

convert the file's status (ie attributes) into a string -- optionally resolving the user and group id numbers into string names. This can be time consuming, so it is optional.
