### Constant

# GioFILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_IS_BACKUP

#### Declaration

    #define G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_IS_BACKUP "standard::is-backup"

#### Description

A key in the “standard” namespace for checking if a file is a backup file.

The exact semantics of what constitutes a backup file are backend-specific. For local files, a file is considered a backup if its name ends with `~` and it is a regular file. This follows the POSIX convention used by text editors such as Emacs.

Corresponding `GFileAttributeType` is `G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_BOOLEAN`.
