Public Methods

Name	Description
CPathT::AddBackslash	Call this method to add a backslash to the end of a string to create the correct syntax for a path.
CPathT::AddExtension	Call this method to add a file extension to a path.
CPathT::Append	Call this method to append a string to the current path.
CPathT::BuildRoot	Call this method to create a root path from a given drive number.
CPathT::Canonicalize	Call this method to convert the path to canonical form.
CPathT::Combine	Call this method to concatenate a string representing a directory name and a string representing a file path name into one path.
CPathT::CommonPrefix	Call this method to determine whether the specified path shares a common prefix with the current path.
CPathT::CompactPath	Call this method to truncate a file path to fit within a given pixel width by replacing path components with ellipses.
CPathT::CompactPathEx	Call this method to truncate a file path to fit within a given number of characters by replacing path components with ellipses.
CPathT::FileExists	Call this method to check whether the file at this path name exists.
CPathT::FindExtension	Call this method to find the position of the file extension within the path.
CPathT::FindFileName	Call this method to find the position of the file name within the path.
CPathT::GetDriveNumber	Call this method to search the path for a drive letter within the range of 'A' to 'Z' and return the corresponding drive number.
CPathT::GetExtension	Call this method to get the file extension from the path.
CPathT::IsDirectory	Call this method to check whether the path is a valid directory.
CPathT::IsFileSpec	Call this method to search a path for any path-delimiting characters (for example, ':' or '\' ). If there are no path-delimiting characters present, the path is considered to be a File Spec path.
CPathT::IsPrefix	Call this method to determine whether a path contains a valid prefix of the type passed by pszPrefix.
CPathT::IsRelative	Call this method to determine if the path is relative.
CPathT::IsRoot	Call this method to determine if the path is a directory root.
CPathT::IsSameRoot	Call this method to determine whether another path has a common root component with the current path.
CPathT::IsUNC	Call this method to determine whether the path is a valid UNC (universal naming convention) path for a server and share.
CPathT::IsUNCServer	Call this method to determine whether the path is a valid UNC (universal naming convention) path for a server only.
CPathT::IsUNCServerShare	Call this method to determine whether the path is a valid UNC (universal naming convention) share path, \\server\share.
CPathT::MakePretty	Call this method to convert a path to all lowercase characters to give the path a consistent appearance.
CPathT::MatchSpec	Call this method to search the path for a string containing a wildcard match type.
CPathT::QuoteSpaces	Call this method to enclose the path in quotation marks if it contains any spaces.
CPathT::RelativePathTo	Call this method to create a relative path from one file or folder to another.
CPathT::RemoveArgs	Call this method to remove any command-line arguments from the path.
CPathT::RemoveBackslash	Call this method to remove the trailing backslash from the path.
CPathT::RemoveBlanks	Call this method to remove all leading and trailing spaces from the path.
CPathT::RemoveExtension	Call this method to remove the file extension from the path, if there is one.
CPathT::RemoveFileSpec	Call this method to remove the trailing file name and backslash from the path, if it has them.
CPathT::RenameExtension	Call this method to replace the file name extension in the path with a new extension. If the file name does not contain an extension, the extension will be attached to the end of the string.
CPathT::SkipRoot	Call this method to parse a path, ignoring the drive letter or UNC server/share path parts.
CPathT::StripPath	Call this method to remove the path portion of a fully qualified path and file name.
CPathT::StripToRoot	Call this method to remove all parts of the path except for the root information.
CPathT::UnquoteSpaces	Call this method to remove quotation marks from the beginning and end of a path.

Public Operators

Name	Description
CPathT::operator const StringType &	This operator allows the object to be treated like a string.
CPathT::operator CPathT::PCXSTR	This operator allows the object to be treated like a string.
CPathT::operator StringType &	This operator allows the object to be treated like a string.
CPathT::operator +=	This operator appends a string to the path.

Public Data Members

Name	Description
CPathT::m_strPath	The path.

Remarks

CPath, CPathA, and CPathW are instantiations of CPathT defined as follows:

typedef CPathT< CString > CPath;

typedef CPathT< CStringA > CPathA;

typedef CPathT< CStringW > CPathW;
