Case sensitive pathname in WIndows

[erik kruyt]

How can I get the case sensitive pathname of a file in Windows?
If I use QFileInfo.filePath I get the uppercase notation only.

Hi,

What is the input you are giving to QFileInfo ?

Due to vacation just now!

I create a QFileInfo object from a filename supplied by the user.

    QFileInfo fi(getFilename(FileKind::Source,i));

I like to have fi.baseName() with the actual case as in the Windows explorer. This filename is used to generate a make file. Make from Mingw is case senstitive.

Can you show the code where you ask the file from the user ?

[erik kruyt]

The getFilename method extracts the filename from a tree with project files.
To much code to show. The case of the filenames in the tree does not always match the case of the actual filenames.

Have you tried QFileInfo::canonicalFilePath() ???

[erik kruyt]

Yes I tried. That does not get the actual case of the path either.

What version of Windows and Qt are you using ?

Can you show an example of original file path and Qt output ?
