30.7.1 Directories ¶

Function: dotest-cd DIRECTORY ¶

Change the working directory. This is just a wrapper for cd; if verbose mode is on: print a message.

Function: dotest-mkdir DIRECTORY ¶

Function: dotest-mkdir DIRECTORY PREFIX ¶

Create DIRECTORY under the temporary directory; DIRECTORY must be a relative pathname (that is: it must not begin with a slash).

The optional PREFIX is a relative pathname that is prepended to DIRECTORY: it is useful to prepend the name of a parent directory.

Print to stdout the full pathname of the directory.

Temporary directory ¶

Function: dotest-echo-tmpdir ¶

Print the value of the temporary directory in which all the files and directories will be created. The value is prefixed with the value of the environment variable TMPDIR, or /tmp if not set.

Function: dotest-cd-tmpdir ¶

Change the working directory to the temporary directory.

Function: dotest-mktmpdir ¶

Create the temporary directory. dotest-mkdir() creates the temporary directory automatically by using the --parents option of mkdir. This function is automatically invoked by dotest-mkfile() and dotest-mkpathname().
