Defined in header`<experimental/filesystem>`
bool is_other( file_status s);	(1)	(filesystem TS)
bool is_other(const path& p);	(2)	(filesystem TS)
bool is_other(const path& p, error_code& ec);	(3)	(filesystem TS)

Checks if the given file status or path corresponds to a file of typeother type. That is, the file exists, but is neither regular file, nor directory nor a symlink.

1) Equivalent toexists(s)&&!is_regular_file(s)&&!is_directory(s)&&!is_symlink(s).

2) Equivalent tois_other(status(p)).

3) Equivalent tois_other(status(p, ec)). Returnsfalse and setsec to an appropriate error code if an error occurs. Otherwise,ec is cleared with a call toec.clear().

[edit]Parameters

s	-	file status to check
p	-	path to examine
ec	-	error code to store the error status to

[edit]Return value

true if the given path or file status corresponds to aother file,false otherwise.

2) Throwsfilesystem_error if an error occurs. The error is constructed withp as an argument. The error code is set to an appropriate error code for the error that caused the failure.
