Category: filesystem Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Beman Dawes (beman_dawes) Summary: change_extension throw an invalid name exception Initial Comment: path change_extension(const path& ph, const std::string& new_extension) { return ph.branch_path() / basename(ph) + new_extension; } If we try with this code : string str = "toto titi.exe"; path p(str, native); path p2 = change_extension(p, ".txt"); Then in change_extension, basename will return a string, and / operator will throw an invalid name as "toto titi" is not a valid path. I made this correction : path change_extension(const path& ph, const std::string& new_extension) { return ph.branch_path() / path(basename(ph) + new_extension, native); } And it seems to be ok now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1444697&group_id=7586 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
