Remove the path of a QString file

[Konstantinos]

Imagine we have QString file. File has directories any time. For example:

C:/Qt/5.6/mingw49_32/bin/example.xml
C:/Qt/raining/now/clouds/nature.png
D:/sun/no_clouds/newworldorder/soon.txt

Is there a smart way to take the names from this file:

example.xml
nature.png
soon.txt

or the last two names:

bin/example.xml
clouds/nature.png
newworldorder/soon.txt

There is the choice .remove.

But you have to know what you want to remove, for example, file.remove("C:/Qt/5.6/mingw49_32/bin/").

If you only want to remove all the folder - file names, except the last two ones?

removefolder(2, file)?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Use the specialized API in QFile, QDir and QFileInfo. For example:

const QString filePath("C:/Qt/5.6/mingw49_32/bin/example.xml");

QFileInfo info(filePath);
qDebug<< info.fileName() << endl << info.dir().path();

Would output:

example.xml
C:/Qt/5.6/mingw49_32/bin

Kind regards.
