std::filesystem::is_other(3)

NAME
std::filesystem::is_other - std::filesystem::is_other

Synopsis
   Defined in header <filesystem>
   bool is_other( std::filesystem::file_status s ) noexcept; (1) (since C++17)
   bool is_other( const std::filesystem::path& p ); (2) (since C++17)
   bool is_other( const std::filesystem::path& p, std::error_code& ec (3) (since C++17)
   ) noexcept;
   Checks if the given file status or path corresponds to a file of type other type.
   That is, the file exists, but is neither regular file, nor directory nor a symlink.
   1) Equivalent to exists(s) && !is_regular_file(s) && !is_directory(s) &&
   !is_symlink(s).
   2,3) Equivalent to is_other(status(p)) or is_other(status(p, ec)), respectively.

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

Return value
   true if the file indicated by p or if the type indicated s refers to a file that is
   not regular file, directory, or a symlink, false otherwise. The non-throwing
   overload returns false if an error occurs.

Exceptions
   Any overload not marked noexcept may throw std::bad_alloc if memory allocation
   fails.
   2,3) Sets a std::error_code& parameter to the OS API error code if an OS API call
   fails, and executes ec.clear() if no errors occur.
