Error Set RenameError [src]

Errors

AccessDenied

In WASI, this error may occur when the file descriptor does not hold the required rights to rename a resource by path relative to it.

On Windows, this error may be returned instead of PathAlreadyExists when renaming a directory over an existing directory.

AntivirusInterference

On Windows, antivirus software is enabled by default. It can be disabled, but Windows Update sometimes ignores the user's preference and re-enables it. When enabled, antivirus software on Windows intercepts file system operations and makes them significantly slower in addition to possibly failing with this error code.

BadPathName

DiskQuota

FileBusy

FileNotFound

InvalidUtf8

WASI-only; file paths must be valid UTF-8.

InvalidWtf8

Windows-only; file paths provided by the user must be valid WTF-8. https://simonsapin.github.io/wtf-8/

IsDir

LinkQuotaExceeded

NameTooLong

NetworkNotFound

On Windows, \\server or \\server\share was not found.

NoDevice

NoSpaceLeft

NotDir

PathAlreadyExists

PermissionDenied

PipeBusy

ReadOnlyFileSystem

RenameAcrossMountPoints

SharingViolation

SymLinkLoop

SystemResources

Unexpected UnexpectedError

The Operating System returned an undocumented error code.

This error is in theory not possible, but it would be better to handle this error than to invoke undefined behavior.

When this error code is observed, it usually means the Zig Standard Library needs a small patch to add the error code to the error set for the respective function.
