Hi,

Does anybody know how a get the file name from a string with file and path ?

Ex:

C:\test\file.dat

I would like to have only the file name: file.dat

Thanks

Try this function

void _splitpath(
const char *path,
char *drive,
char *dir,
char *fname,
char *ext
);

which is prototyped in stdlib.h / cstdlib

I have a subroutine that does this. Of course, I got this somewhere else, but I don't remember where.

const char * GetFileName(const char *pszPathName )
{
static CString STmp = pszPathName;
STmp.MakeReverse();
STmp = STmp.SpanExcluding("\\"
STmp.MakeReverse();
return STmp;
}
