wxFileName currently supports the file names in the Unix, DOS/Windows, Mac OS
and VMS formats. Although these formats are quite different, wxFileName tries
-to treat them all in the sam generic way. It supposes that all file names

consist of the following parts: the volume (also known as drive under Windows
or device under VMS), the path which is a sequence of directory names separated
by the \helpref{path separators}{wxfilenamegetpathseparators} and the full
\func{}{wxFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{fullpath}, \param{wxPathFormat }{format = wxPATH\_NATIVE}}

extension are extracted from it
\func{}{wxFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{path}, \param{const wxString\& }{name}, \param{wxPathFormat }{format = wxPATH\_NATIVE}}
Return the path part of the filename (without the name nor extension). The
possible flags values are:

separator, if this flag is not given there will be no separator at the end of
the path.}

Get the string containing all the path separators for this format. For all
formats but {\tt wxPATH\_DOS} this string contains only one character but for
-DOS and Windows both {\tt '/'} and {\tt '\backslash'} may be used as
+DOS and Windows both {\tt '/'} and {\tt '\textbackslash'} may be used as

+and the extension. Any of the output parameters ({\it volume}, {\it path},
+{\it name} or {\it ext}) may be {\tt NULL} if you are not interested in the
+value of a particular component. Also, {\it fullpath} may be empty on entry.
-split a fullpath into the volume, path, (base) name and extension
-(all of the pointers can be NULL)
+On return, {\it path} contains the file path (without the trailing separator),
+{\it name} contains the file name and {\it ext} contains the file extension
+without leading dot. All three of them may be empty if the corresponding
+component is. The old contents of the strings pointed to by these parameters
+will be overwritten in any case (if the pointers are not {\tt NULL}).
