Detailed Description

Function Documentation

pathjoin()

string Rivet::pathjoin ( const vector< string > &  paths )

inline

Join several filesystem paths together with the standard ':' delimiter.

Note that this does NOT join path elements together with a platform-portable directory delimiter, cf. the Python {os.path.join}!

References Rivet::join().

pathsplit()

vector< string > Rivet::pathsplit ( const string &  path )

inline

Split a path string with colon delimiters.

Ignores zero-length substrings. Designed for getting elements of filesystem paths, naturally.
