Static method: string ToggleRelative(string, string)

• Declared in: RT.Util.PathUtil

Declaration

public static string ToggleRelative(
    string basePath,
    string toggledPath
)

Summary

Changes a relative toggledPath to an absolute and vice versa, with respect to basePath. Neither path must be an empty string. Any trailing slashes are ignored and the result won't have one except for root "C:\"-style paths. Forward slashes, multiple repeated slashes, and any redundant "." or ".." elements are correctly interpreted and eliminated. See Remarks for some special cases.

Parameters

string	basePath	An absolute path to the directory which serves as the base for absolute/relative conversion.
string	toggledPath	An absolute or a relative path to be converted.

Returns

The converted path.

Exceptions

• RT.Util.ToggleRelativeException

  Conversion could not be performed for the reason specified in the exception object.

Remarks

Relative paths that specify a drive letter "C:thing" are not supported and result in undefined behaviour. If the toggled path is relative then all ".." levels that expand beyond the root directory are silently discarded.
