# ssh2_sftp_lstat

(PECL)

ssh2_sftp_lstat -- Stat a symbolic link

## Description

array ssh2_sftp_lstat ( resource sftp, string path )

Stats a symbolic link on the remote filesystem without following the link. This function is similar to using the lstat() function with the ssh2.sftp:// wrapper in PHP5 and returns the same values. See the documentation for stat() for details on the values which may be returned.

Example 1. Stating a symbolic link via SFTP

`<?php $connection = ssh2_connect('shell.example.com', 22); ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password'); $sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection); $statinfo = ssh2_sftp_lstat($sftp, '/path/to/symlink'); $filesize = $statinfo['size']; $group = $statinfo['gid']; $owner = $statinfo['uid']; $atime = $statinfo['atime']; $mtime = $statinfo['mtime']; $mode = $statinfo['mode']; ?>`
