mingw: make the dirent implementation pluggable
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Emulating the POSIX `dirent` API on Windows via
`FindFirstFile()`/`FindNextFile()` is pretty staightforward, however,
most of the information provided in the `WIN32_FIND_DATA` structure is
thrown away in the process. A more sophisticated implementation may
cache this data, e.g. for later reuse in calls to `lstat()`.

Make the `dirent` implementation pluggable so that it can be switched at
runtime, e.g. based on a config option.

Define a base DIR structure with pointers to `readdir()`/`closedir()`
that match the `opendir()` implementation (similar to vtable pointers in
Object-Oriented Programming). Define `readdir()`/`closedir()` so that
they call the function pointers in the `DIR` structure. This allows to
choose the `opendir()` implementation on a call-by-call basis.

Make the fixed-size `dirent.d_name` buffer a flex array, as `d_name` may
be implementation specific (e.g. a caching implementation may allocate a
`struct dirent` with _just_ the size needed to hold the `d_name` in
question).
