Aso class handling

Usage

int atIsDerived (Af_key *aso);

Overview

atFileClassExt returns a short string (one or two characters long), visualizing the attributed software objects (aso) class. This is a superset of the file class symbols added to filenames by the ls -F command.

/

Directory.

@

Symbolic Link.

=

Socket.

*

Executable.

$

Derived.

^

Locked.

Some combinations are possible. In espacially the circumflex (^) may be combined with any other symbol, resulting in a two letter string.

atIsDerived checks whether the denoted aso is in a derived object cache (return value TRUE) or not (return value FALSE).
