I am making a command line utility. I need to pass around a few file paths in the program.
Right now I am just using string
. But I was wondering if the .net library had a cool class for passing around file paths.
File paths specify the location of individual files. They are used to give files access to one another and they are of two types : Absolute and Relative. Relative file paths on the hand points to the location of files in the root folder of an individual web project with reference to the current working file.
What Is An Absolute Path? An absolute path is defined as the specifying the location of a file or directory from the root directory(/). In other words we can say absolute path is a complete path from start of actual filesystem from / directory.
To enable long file paths in Windows, open Registry Editor, create a new DWORD named "LongPathsEnabled" in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" and set the value to 1.
They indicate that the path should be passed to the system with minimal modification, which means that you cannot use forward slashes to represent path separators, or a period to represent the current directory, or double dots to represent the parent directory.
Well, there's FileInfo
- that's about as close as you get.
