12
13    use File::Basename;
14
15    ($name,$path,$suffix) = fileparse($fullname,@suffixlist)
16    fileparse_set_fstype($os_string);
17    $basename = basename($fullname,@suffixlist);
18    $dirname = dirname($fullname);
19
20    ($name,$path,$suffix) = fileparse("lib/File/Basename.pm","\.pm");
21    fileparse_set_fstype("VMS");
22    $basename = basename("lib/File/Basename.pm",".pm");
23    $dirname = dirname("lib/File/Basename.pm");

25=head1 DESCRIPTION
26
27These routines allow you to parse file specifications into useful
28pieces using the syntax of different operating systems.
29
30=over 4
31
32=item fileparse_set_fstype
33
34You select the syntax via the routine fileparse_set_fstype().
35
36If the argument passed to it contains one of the substrings
37"VMS", "MSDOS", "MacOS", "AmigaOS" or "MSWin32", the file specification
38syntax of that operating system is used in future calls to
39fileparse(), basename(), and dirname().  If it contains none of
40these substrings, UNIX syntax is used.  This pattern matching is
41case-insensitive.  If you've selected VMS syntax, and the file
42specification you pass to one of these routines contains a "/",
43they assume you are using UNIX emulation and apply the UNIX syntax
44rules instead, for that function call only.
45
46If the argument passed to it contains one of the substrings "VMS",
47"MSDOS", "MacOS", "AmigaOS", "os2", "MSWin32" or "RISCOS", then the pattern
48matching for suffix removal is performed without regard for case,
49since those systems are not case-sensitive when opening existing files
50(though some of them preserve case on file creation).
51
52If you haven't called fileparse_set_fstype(), the syntax is chosen
53by examining the builtin variable C<$^O> according to these rules.
54
55=item fileparse
56
57The fileparse() routine divides a file specification into three
58parts: a leading B<path>, a file B<name>, and a B<suffix>.  The
59B<path> contains everything up to and including the last directory
60separator in the input file specification.  The remainder of the input
61file specification is then divided into B<name> and B<suffix> based on
62the optional patterns you specify in C<@suffixlist>.  Each element of
63this list is interpreted as a regular expression, and is matched
64against the end of B<name>.  If this succeeds, the matching portion of
65B<name> is removed and prepended to B<suffix>.  By proper use of
66C<@suffixlist>, you can remove file types or versions for examination.
67
68You are guaranteed that if you concatenate B<path>, B<name>, and
69B<suffix> together in that order, the result will denote the same
70file as the input file specification.

74=head1 EXAMPLES
75
76Using UNIX file syntax:
77
78    ($base,$path,$type) = fileparse('/virgil/aeneid/draft.book7',
79				    '\.book\d+');
80
81would yield
82
83    $base eq 'draft'
84    $path eq '/virgil/aeneid/',
85    $type eq '.book7'
86
87Similarly, using VMS syntax:
88
89    ($name,$dir,$type) = fileparse('Doc_Root:[Help]Rhetoric.Rnh',
90				   '\..*');
91
92would yield
93
94    $name eq 'Rhetoric'
95    $dir  eq 'Doc_Root:[Help]'
96    $type eq '.Rnh'
97
98=over
99
100=item C<basename>
101
102The basename() routine returns the first element of the list produced
103by calling fileparse() with the same arguments, except that it always
104quotes metacharacters in the given suffixes.  It is provided for
105programmer compatibility with the UNIX shell command basename(1).
106
107=item C<dirname>
108
109The dirname() routine returns the directory portion of the input file
110specification.  When using VMS or MacOS syntax, this is identical to the
111second element of the list produced by calling fileparse() with the same
112input file specification.  (Under VMS, if there is no directory information
113in the input file specification, then the current default device and
114directory are returned.)  When using UNIX or MSDOS syntax, the return
115value conforms to the behavior of the UNIX shell command dirname(1).  This
116is usually the same as the behavior of fileparse(), but differs in some
117cases.  For example, for the input file specification F<lib/>, fileparse()
118considers the directory name to be F<lib/>, while dirname() considers the
119directory name to be F<.>).
