Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Raider (streetraider) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: filesystem::path as a template Initial Comment: I suggest boost::filesystem::path to be a template: template <typename CharType = char> class path; Current path will be used as path<char>. Of course it's unable to use path<wchar_t> for file operations like open(), rename() and so on with current C++ library. These function may take path<char> as parameters. But it's very useful to have path<wchar_t> dealing with filenames! Any will be able to use it and pass them for WinAPI functions by example, or use in any database that support wide chars. At second, I think path::extention() member function will be useful to exctact extention of the file, such as ".html" (or just "html") for "foo/bar.html". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=357586&aid=1482308&group_id=7586 ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
