Name
Meaning
🔗
native_format
The native pathname format.
🔗
generic_format
The generic pathname format.
🔗
auto_format
The interpretation of the format of the character sequence is implementation-defined.
The implementation may inspect the content of the character sequence to determine the format.
Recommended practice: For POSIX-based systems, native and generic formats are equivalent and the character sequence should always be interpreted in the same way.
