C# .NET normal to verbatim string conversion

[rhitam30111985]

Hi all ... i have a tricky problem.. cant seem to find a solution to it :

[CODE=cs]

using System;
using System.Collecti ons.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Text.Reg ularExpressions ;

namespace ConsoleApplicat ion1


{
class myfunc
{
public string GetFileName(str ing szPath)
{
Regex r = new Regex(@"\w+[.]\w+$+");
return r.Match(szPath) .Value;
}
}

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
myfunc a = new myfunc();
string path = "c:\tet\tee\tet e.txt";
string final_path = '@' + path;
Console.WriteLi ne(final_path);
Console.WriteLi ne(a.GetFileNam e(final_path));
Console.ReadLin e();
}
}
}

[/CODE]

the above code gives me folllowing line of output :

@C: et ee ete.txt
ete.txt

what i am trying to do is convert the normal string to verbatim string so that the escape sequences are ignored and the correct file name is outputted ... is this possible ?

ie .. the output shud be :

c:\tet\tee\tete .txt
tete.txt

[Plater]

use:

string path = @"c:\tet\tee\tete.txt";
System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(path);
Console.WriteLine(path );
Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
Console.ReadLine();

No i cant do that becoz i i am using this in a form where the user selects a file using the filedialog class ... the string returned is a normal string .. for further processing i need to convert it .. .

[Plater]

The string returned from a filedialog will be correctly escaped and can be used as is.

Also note that I edited my above post.


And an edit here for filedialog usage:

string fullpath = myOpenFileDialog.FileName;
System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(fullpath);
Console.WriteLine(fullpath);
Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
Console.ReadLine();
