Modern Fs PathAddExtension

PathAddExtension

Adds an extension after any already there, so a.tar becomes a.tar.gz.

Syntax

PathAddExtension( p, ext [, gram ] )

Notes

• Adds ext after any extension already there; PathChangeExtension replaces it instead.
• A leading dot in ext is not doubled. A trailing separator does not hide the name: "dir/" becomes "dir.gz". An empty ext, or a path with no file name, comes back unchanged.

Examples

#import "std/fs"
using fs

print PathAddExtension( "data.tar", "gz", FB_PATH_POSIX )         '' data.tar.gz
print PathChangeExtension( "data.tar", "gz", FB_PATH_POSIX )      '' data.gz
