| File.FullPath | Part of File module |
| Syntax | File.FullPath (pathName) : string) : string
|
| Description | File.FullPath returns a string representing the full absolute path name in Turing format (forward slashes) of the path that
is passed to the function. The path name passed in does not have to describe an existing file or directory.
|
| Details | The full path name will be in Turing format and include the drive name (for example "d:/turing/examples/games/SpaceGame.t")
|
| Example | This program obtains a path from the user and then outputs a full path name based on the path.
var pathName : string
get pathName
put "Full path = ", File.FullPath (pathName)
|
| Execute | |
| Details | Another example is available that checks whether a file and all of the directories in the path to the file exist.
This program illustrates the use of File.FullPath, File.Parent, File.Exists, and Dir.Exists.
|
| Status | Exported qualified. This means that you can only call the function by calling File.FullPath, not by calling FullPath.
