This is an example of documentation generated by ZigDoc, an alternative to Zig's built-in Auto Doc feature. See also examples in other modes/formats. The project being documented here (as the example) is the Zig standard library. Public Function

realPathFileAlloc

Public Function
std.Io.Dir.realPathFileAlloc
pub fn realPathFileAlloc(dir: Dir, io: Io, sub_path: []const u8, allocator: Allocator) RealPathFileAllocError![:0]u8

Same as realPathFile except allocates result.

This function has limited platform support, and using it can lead to unnecessary failures and race conditions. It is generally advisable to avoid this function entirely.
