Path helper functions.
|
static |
Add trailing slash or backslash to path.
This function checks if a path already has a trailing slash/backslash and adds it if its missing.
path | The path to use |
path_type | The path type (of path) |
References clan::path, and path_type_file.
|
static |
Concatenates two strings into one adding a trailing slash to first string if missing.
part1 | First part of path |
part2 | Second part of path |
path_type | The path type (of path) |
References path_type_file.
|
static |
Returns the basename part of a fullname.
param: fullname = The full path to use param: path_type = The path type
References path_type_file.
|
static |
Returns the path excluding the location and filename.
fullname | The full path name to use |
path_type | The path type |
If (path_type == path_type_virtual) or not using windows, then this function returns the path (excluding filename)

References path_type_file.
|
static |
Returns the filename part of a fullname.

Returns the drive (C:) or share name ( \ \ computer \ share)
If (path_type == path_type_virtual) or not using windows, then this function always returns an empty string.

References clan::path, and path_type_file.
|
static |
Convert a relative path to an absolute path.
base_path | The base path (Does not require a trailing slash) |
relative_path | The relative path |
path_type | The path type |
This function behaves differently depending on OS and path_type. In Windows, if the relative_path begins with a drive letter, and the driver letter differs from the base path, the path is converted to an absolute path using the current directory for that drive. Likewise, if the specified base path does not include a drive or its path is not absolute, the current drive and directory is added. The function converts all slashes to backslashes.
If the OS is unix based, there is no location (drive or share name) and the function also converts all backslashes to slashes.
If the type is path_type_virtual, the base path is required to be absolute. If it does not start in a slash, the function prefixes a slash to the path. The current drive or directory is never taken into account and all backslashes are converted to slashes.
This function calls normalise() on base_path and relative_path.

static |
Converts an absolute path into a path relative to a base path.
base_path | The base path (Does not require a trailing slash) |
absolute_path | The absolute path |
path_type | The path type |
This function is the inverse of FileHelp::make_absolute. Please see the detailed information for make_absolute for more information about behavior.
This function calls normalise() on the base_path and absolute_path-
Example #1 (Windows):
References path_type_file.

static |
Normalize a path.
path | The path to use |
path_type | The path type (of the normalized path) |
Converts all slashes and backslashes into their right type. Simplifies or removes all . and .., converting the path into its most readable form.
References clan::path, and path_type_file.
|
static |
Remove trailing slash or backslash from path.
This function checks if a path has a trailing slash/backslash and removes it if needed.
path | The path to use |
References clan::path.
|
static |
Splits the path, excluding the location, into parts.
