Description: API documentation for the Rust `Prefix` enum in crate `std`.
Keywords: rust, rustlang, rust-lang, Prefix

# Enum std::path::Prefix 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub enum Prefix<'a> {
        Verbatim(&'a OsStr),
        VerbatimUNC(&'a OsStr, &'a OsStr),
        VerbatimDisk(u8),
        DeviceNS(&'a OsStr),
        UNC(&'a OsStr, &'a OsStr),
        Disk(u8),
    }

Path prefixes (Windows only).

Windows uses a variety of path styles, including references to drive volumes (like `C:`), network shared folders (like `\\server\share`) and others. In addition, some path prefixes are "verbatim", in which case `/` is not treated as a separator and essentially no normalization is performed.

## Variants

`Verbatim(&'a OsStr)`

Prefix `\\?\`, together with the given component immediately following it.

`VerbatimUNC(&'a OsStr, &'a OsStr)`

Prefix `\\?\UNC\`, with the "server" and "share" components following it.

`VerbatimDisk(u8)`

Prefix like `\\?\C:\`, for the given drive letter

`DeviceNS(&'a OsStr)`

Prefix `\\.\`, together with the given component immediately following it.

`UNC(&'a OsStr, &'a OsStr)`

Prefix `\\server\share`, with the given "server" and "share" components.

`Disk(u8)`

Prefix `C:` for the given disk drive.

## Methods

### `impl<'a> Prefix<'a>`
[src]

#### `fn is_verbatim(&self) -> bool`

Determines if the prefix is verbatim, i.e. begins with `\\?\`.

## Trait Implementations

### `impl<'a> Copy for Prefix<'a>`
[src]

### `impl<'a> Clone for Prefix<'a>`
[src]

#### `fn clone(&self) -> Prefix<'a>`

Returns a copy of the value. Read more

#### `fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)`

Performs copy-assignment from `source`. Read more

### `impl<'a> Debug for Prefix<'a>`
[src]

#### `fn fmt(&self, __arg_0: &mut Formatter) -> Result`

Formats the value using the given formatter.

### `impl<'a> Hash for Prefix<'a>`
[src]

#### `fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, __arg_0: &mut __H)`

Feeds this value into the state given, updating the hasher as necessary.

### `impl<'a> PartialOrd for Prefix<'a>`
[src]

#### `fn partial_cmp(&self, __arg_0: &Prefix<'a>) -> Option<Ordering>`

This method returns an ordering between `self` and `other` values if one exists. Read more

#### `fn lt(&self, __arg_0: &Prefix<'a>) -> bool`

This method tests less than (for `self` and `other`) and is used by the `<` operator. Read more

#### `fn le(&self, __arg_0: &Prefix<'a>) -> bool`

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
