set_filename


Description:

public bool set_filename (string file_name)

Sets the file name of the path.

If the path buffer is empty, the filename is left unset and this function returns `FALSE`.

If the path buffer only contains the root element (on Unix-like operating systems) or the drive (on Windows), this is the equivalent of pushing the new file_name.

If the path buffer contains a path, this is the equivalent of popping the path buffer and pushing file_name, creating a sibling of the original path.

GPathBuf buf, cmp;

g_path_buf_init_from_path (&buf, "/");

g_path_buf_set_filename (&buf, "bar");
g_path_buf_init_from_path (&cmp, "/bar");
g_assert_true (g_path_buf_equal (&buf, &cmp));
g_path_buf_clear (&cmp);

g_path_buf_set_filename (&buf, "baz.txt");
g_path_buf_init_from_path (&cmp, "/baz.txt");
g_assert_true (g_path_buf_equal (&buf, &cmp);
g_path_buf_clear (&cmp);

g_path_buf_clear (&buf);

Parameters:

this

a path buffer

file_name

the file name in the path

Returns:

`TRUE` if the file name was replaced, and `FALSE` otherwise
