CSplitpath:SetDir CSplitpath:SetExt

CSplitpath:SetDrive


The SetDrive method sets the drive name component of the CSplitpath object. Use Merge to combine this component and the other components into a full path.

Syntax

bSuccess = CSplitpath:SetDrive( sDir )

 

    On success, this method returns true.

    On failure, this method returns false.

Example

Suppose a file exists with a full path named sPath. The following script fragment creates a new path using a different drive named sNewDrive:

 

S = CSplitpath:new()

-- create a CSplitpath object

S:SetPath(sPath)

-- set the starting path

S:SetDrive(sNewDrive)

-- assign a new drive name

S:Merge()

-- combine the path components

  ...

-- do something with the new path

S:delete()

-- when done with S, remove it from memory
