Member Function Documentation

basename()

String basename

(

String

path

)

Provides the base name from the given path, by stripping the components before the last path-separator character.

Parameters

path	A file-system path.

Returns

The base name of the given path.

dirname()

String dirname

(

String

path

)

Provides the directory name from the given path, by stripping the component after the last path-separator character.

Parameters

path	A file-system path.

Returns

The directory name of the given path.

isabs()

Bool isabs

(

String

path

)

Checks if the given path is absolute.

Parameters

path	A file-system path.

Returns

true if the given path is absolute.

isdir()

Bool isdir

(

String

path

)

Checks if the given path exists and is a directory.

Parameters

path	A file-system path.

Returns

true if path points to an existing directory.

isfile()

Bool isfile

(

String

path

)

Checks if the given path exists and is a file.

Parameters

path	A file-system path.

Returns

true if path points to an existing file.

join()

String join	(	String	pathA,
		String	pathB,
		String	pathC,
		String	pathD
	)

Joins the path components using the path-separator character.

Parameters

pathA	A file-system path component.
pathB	A file-system path component.
pathC	Optional A file-system path component.
pathD	Optional A file-system path component.

Returns

The joined path.

If a component is an absolute path, the current result is discarded and replaced with the current component.

normpath()

String normpath

(

String

path

)

Normalizes the given path, collapsing redundant path-separator characters and relative references.

Parameters

path	A file-system path component.

Returns

The normalized path.
