13
14 wxFileName encapsulates a file name. This class serves two purposes: first, it
15 provides the functions to split the file names into components and to recombine
16 these components in the full file name which can then be passed to the OS file
17 functions (and \helpref{wxWindows functions}{filefunctions} wrapping them).
18 Second, it includes the functions for working with the files itself. Note that
19 to change the file data you should use \helpref{wxFile}{wxfile} class instead,
20 wxFileName provides functions for working with the file attributes.

28 Many wxFileName methods accept the path format argument which is by\rtfsp
29 {\tt wxPATH\_NATIVE} by default meaning to use the path format native for the
30 current platform.
31
32 The path format affects the operation of wxFileName functions in several ways:
33 first and foremost, it defines the path separator character to use, but it also
34 affects other things such as whether the path has the drive part or not.
35
36 \begin{verbatim}
37 enum wxPathFormat
38 {
39 wxPATH_NATIVE = 0, // the path format for the current platform
40 wxPATH_UNIX,
41 wxPATH_MAC,
42 wxPATH_DOS,
43 wxPATH_VMS,
44
45 wxPATH_BEOS = wxPATH_UNIX,
46 wxPATH_WIN = wxPATH_DOS,
47 wxPATH_OS2 = wxPATH_DOS
48 }
49 \end{verbatim}
50
51 The kind of normalization to do with the file name: these values can be
52 or'd together to perform several operations at once in\rtfsp
53 \helpref{Normalize}{wxfilenamenormalize}.
54
55 \begin{verbatim}
56 enum wxPathNormalize
57 {
58 wxPATH_NORM_ENV_VARS = 0x0001, // replace env vars with their values
59 wxPATH_NORM_DOTS = 0x0002, // squeeze all .. and . and prepend cwd
60 wxPATH_NORM_TILDE = 0x0004, // Unix only: replace ~ and ~user
61 wxPATH_NORM_CASE = 0x0008, // if case insensitive => tolower
62 wxPATH_NORM_ABSOLUTE = 0x0010, // make the path absolute
63 wxPATH_NORM_LONG = 0x0020, // make the path the long form
64 wxPATH_NORM_ALL = 0x003f
65 }

70 \membersection{File name format}
71
72 wxFileName currently supports the file names in the Unix, DOS/Windows, Mac OS
73 and VMS formats. Although these formats are quite different, wxFileName tries
74 to treat them all in the sam generic way. It supposes that all file names
75 consist of the following parts: the volume (also known as drive under Windows
76 or device under VMS), the path which is a sequence of directory names separated
77 by the \helpref{path separators}{wxfilenamegetpathseparators} and the full
78 filename itself which, in turn, is composed from the base file name and the
79 extension. All of the individual components of the file name may be empty and,
80 for example, the volume name is always empty under Unix, but if they are all
81 empty simultaneously, the filename object is considered to be in an invalid
82 state and \helpref{IsOk}{wxfilenameisok} returns {\tt FALSE} for it.
83
84 File names can be case-sensitive or not, the function\rtfsp
85 \helpref{IsCaseSensitive}{wxfilenameiscasesensitive} allows to determine this.
86
87 The rules for determining if the file name is absolute or relative also depends
88 on the file name format and the only portable way to answer to this question is
89 to use \helpref{IsAbsolute}{wxfilenameisabsolute} method. To ensure that the
90 filename is absolute you may use \helpref{Normalize}{wxfilenamenormalize}. There
91 is also an inverse function \helpref{MakeRelativeTo}{wxfilenamemakerelativeto}
92 which undoes what \helpref{Normalize(wxPATH\_NORM\_DOTS}{wxfilenamenormalize}
93 does.
94
95 Other functions returning information about the file format provided by this
96 class are \helpref{GetVolumeSeparator}{wxfilenamegetvolumeseparator},\rtfsp
97 \helpref{IsPathSeparator}{wxfilenameispathseparator}.
98
99 \helpref{IsRelative}{wxfilenameisrelative}
100
101 \membersection{File name construction}
102
103 TODO.
104
105 \membersection{File tests}
106
107 Before doing the other tests you should use \helpref{IsOk}{wxfilenameisok} to
108 verify that the filename is well defined. If it is,
109 \helpref{FileExists}{wxfilenamefileexists} can be used to test if a file with
110 such name exists and \helpref{DirExists}{wxfilenamedirexists} - if a directory
111 with this name exists.
112
113 File names should be compared using \helpref{SameAs}{wxfilenamesameas} method
114 or \helpref{$==$}{wxfilenameoperatorequal}.
115
116 \membersection{File name components}
117
118 These functions allow to examine and modify the directories of the path:
119
120 \helpref{AppendDir}{wxfilenameappenddir}\\
121 \helpref{InsertDir}{wxfilenameinsertdir}\\
122 \helpref{GetDirCount}{wxfilenamegetdircount}
123 \helpref{PrependDir}{wxfilenameprependdir}\\
124 \helpref{RemoveDir}{wxfilenameremovedir}
125
126 To change the components of the file name individually you can use the
127 following functions:
128
129 \helpref{GetExt}{wxfilenamegetext}\\
130 \helpref{GetName}{wxfilenamegetname}\\
131 \helpref{GetVolume}{wxfilenamegetvolume}\\
132 \helpref{HasExt}{wxfilenamehasext}\\
133 \helpref{HasName}{wxfilenamehasname}\\
134 \helpref{HasVolume}{wxfilenamehasvolume}\\
135 \helpref{SetExt}{wxfilenamesetext}\\
136 \helpref{SetName}{wxfilenamesetname}\\
137 \helpref{SetVolume}{wxfilenamesetvolume}\\
138
139 \membersection{Operations}
140
141 These methods allow to work with the file creation, access and modification
142 times. Note that not all filesystems under all platforms implement these times
143 in the same way. For example, the access time under Windows has a resolution of
144 one day (so it is really the access date and not time). The access time may be
145 updated when the file is executed or not depending on the platform.
146
147 \helpref{GetModificationTime}{wxfilenamegetmodificationtime}\\
148 \helpref{GetTimes}{wxfilenamegettimes}\\
149 \helpref{SetTimes}{wxfilenamesettimes}\\
150 \helpref{Touch}{wxfilenametouch}
151
152 Other file system operations functions are:
153
154 \helpref{Mkdir}{wxfilenamemkdir}\\
155 \helpref{Rmdir}{wxfilenamermdir}

230
231 \func{void}{AssignTempFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{prefix}, \param{wxFile *}{fileTemp = {\tt NULL}}}
232
233 The function calls \helpref{CreateTempFileName}{wxfilenamecreatetempfilename} to
234 create a temporary file and sets this object to the name of the file. If a
235 temporary file couldn't be created, the object is put into the\rtfsp
236 \helpref{invalid}{wxfilenameisok} state.
237

246 \func{static wxString}{CreateTempFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{prefix}, \param{wxFile *}{fileTemp = {\tt NULL}}}
247
248 Returns a temporary file name starting with the given {\it prefix}. If
249 the {\it prefix} is an absolute path, the temporary file is created in this
250 directory, otherwise it is created in the default system directory for the
251 temporary files or in the current directory.
252
253 If the function succeeds, the temporary file is actually created. If\rtfsp
254 {\it fileTemp} is not {\tt NULL}, this file will be opened using the name of
255 the temporary file. When possible, this is done in an atomic way ensuring that
256 no race condition occurs between the temporary file name generation and opening
257 it which could often lead to security compromise on the multiuser systems.
258 If {\it fileTemp} is {\tt NULL}, the file is only created, but not opened.
259
260 Under Unix, the temporary file will have read and write permissions for the
261 owner only to minimize the security problems.

434
435 Return the last access, last modification and creation times. The last access
436 time is updated whenever the file is read or written (or executed in the case
437 of Windows), last modification time is only changed when the file is written
438 to. Finally, the creation time is indeed the time when the file was created
439 under Windows and the inode change time under Unix (as it is impossible to
440 retrieve the real file creation time there anyhow) which can also be changed
441 by many operations after the file creation.

502 \constfunc{bool}{IsOk}{\void}
503
504 Returns {\tt TRUE} if the filename is valid, {\tt FALSE} if it is not

546 {\tt TRUE} if the file name has been changed, {\tt FALSE} if we failed to do
