CSplitpath:GetFolder
The GetFolder method returns the folder name from a CSplitpath object. The returned string includes the machine name, drive name, and directory. The string is terminated by a backslash character, \.To return the folder without a terminal backslash, use GetFolder2() instead.
|
sFolder = CSplitpath:GetFolder() |
|
On success,
this method returns a string containing the machine name, drive,
and directory.
On failure,
this method returns nil.
Suppose a file exists with a full path named sPath. The following script fragment retrieves the folder component:
|
S = CSplitpath:new() |
-- create a CSplitpath object |
|
S:SetPath(sPath) |
-- Specify the path to be split |
|
sFolder = S:GetFolder() |
-- assigns the folder component to the string sFolder |
|
S:delete() |
-- when done with S, remove it from memory |
