class haxe.io.Path

This class provides a convenient way of working with paths. It supports the common path formats:

  • directory1/directory2/filename.extension
  • directory1\directory2\filename.excention

Class Fields

static function withoutDirectory(path:String): String

Returns the String representation of path without the directory.

If path is null, the result is unspecified.

Instance Fields

var backslash:Bool

True if the last directory separator is a backslash, false otherwise.

var dir:String

The directory.

This is the leading part of the path that is not part of the file name and the extension.

Does not end with a / or \ separator.

If the path has no directory, the value is null.

var ext:String

The file extension.

It is separated from the file name by a dot. This dot is not part of the extension.

If the path has no extension, the value is null.

var file:String

The file name.

This is the part of the part between the directory and the extension.

If there is no file name, e.g. for ".htaccess" or "/dir/", the value is the empty String "".

function new(path:String): Void

Creates a new Path instance by parsing path.

Path information can be retrieved by accessing the dir, file and ext properties.

function toString(): String

Returns a String representation of this path.

If this.backslash is true, backslash is used as directory separator, otherwise slash is used. This only affects the separator between this.dir and this.file.

If this.directory or this.extension is null, their representation is the empty String "".
