The design is Unix-like, although the error handling is // Go-like; failing calls return values of type error rather than error numbers. // Often, more information is available within the error. For example, // if a call that takes a file name fails, such as Open or Stat, the error // will include the failing file name when printed and will be of type // *PathError, which may be unpacked for more information. // // The os interface is intended to be uniform across all operating systems. // Features not generally available appear in the system-specific package syscall. // // Here is a simple example, opening a file and reading some of it. // // file, err := os.Open("file.go") // For read access. // if err != nil { // log.Fatal(err) // } // // If the open fails, the error string will be self-explanatory, like // // open file.go: no such file or directory // // The file's data can then be read into a slice of bytes. Read and // Write take their byte counts from the length of the argument slice. // // data := make([]byte, 100) // count, err := file.Read(data) // if err != nil { // log.Fatal(err) // } // fmt.Printf("read %d bytes: %q\n", count, data[:count]) // package os import ( "io" "syscall" ) // Name returns the name of the file as presented to Open. func (f *File) Name() string { return f.name } // Stdin, Stdout, and Stderr are open Files pointing to the standard input, // standard output, and standard error file descriptors. var ( Stdin = NewFile(uintptr(syscall.Stdin), "/dev/stdin") Stdout = NewFile(uintptr(syscall.Stdout), "/dev/stdout") Stderr = NewFile(uintptr(syscall.Stderr), "/dev/stderr") ) // Flags to Open wrapping those of the underlying system.
