.net, built in way to get directory name from path?

Question

Given the following directory:

string fullpath = "C:\MyDir1\MyDir2\MyDir3";

I would like to return "MyDir3" - this being the directory name (not full path, of a directory) , I know I can do this using string manipulation, but is there an easy (built in way) to achieve this using framework classes?

Thanks

Answer 1

string dir = new DirectoryInfo(fullpath).Name;

Answer 2

try this

string s =new  System.IO.DirectoryInfo(@"C:\MyDir1\MyDir2\MyDir3").Name;
