RE: [Dev-C++] ANSI C: How to split path and filename

[Schedler, K. <Kur...@hi...>]

Don't forget that Unix uses forward slashes and DOS (somewhat =
annoyingly,
IMO) uses backslashes.  So if you're testing for a particular =
character, it
won't work indentically on different platforms.

Subject: [Dev-C++] ANSI C: How to split path and filename


Hello,
how do I split my path and my filename?
Example:

c:\things\alfa\myfile.txt

like:   char *thepath ----> c:\things\alfa
        char *thefile ----> myfile.txt

in ANSI C (or C), meaning the same way with DOS or UNIX

There is anywhere to find this kind of things? (I couldn't find in the =
help
neither in Bob Stout's snippets)

Thanks.
