Fr33b0w Posted July 3, 2010 Posted July 3, 2010 If i have a file path like this: d:\folder6\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 I need in my script to extract "folder1" name to get album name... I did try that with SplitString but it counts arrays from left to right If it could read it from right to left I would ask for $array[2] and problem solved What I did is: ;here is path $path=d:\folder6\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 ;here i set "\" as delimiter $split = StringSplit($path,"\") ;this number shows how many strings i got by spliting $number=$split[0] I did try to substract one number from "$array[0]" to get number of arrays substracted by one to get last folder name. But I dont know how to do that... How can I always get name of folder1 if there are different folder numbers till mp3 file? Example: d:\folder6\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 (array[7]) d:\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 (array[6]) d:\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 (array[4]) d:\folder1\musicfile.mp3 (array[2]) d:\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3 (array[5]) I always need folder1 but autoit read it like this: d:\folder1\folder2\folder3\folder4\folder5\folder6\musicfile.mp3 d:(array[1])\folder1(array[2])\folder2(array[3])\folder3(array[4])\folder4(array[5])\folder5(array[6])\folder6(array[7])\musicfile.mp3(array[8]) Any help? BTW I am using this: _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath() to get path name... Is there name just to get folder name in that UDF maybe? It will be much better and easier... Thanks in advance!
GEOSoft Posted July 3, 2010 Posted July 3, 2010 $sPath = "d:\folder6\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3" $sFolder = StringRegExpReplace($sPath, "(?m:^|\n).*\\(.+?)\\.+$", "$1") If you feel more comfortable with StringSplit try this $sPath = "d:\folder6\folder5\folder4\folder3\folder2\folder1\musicfile.mp3" $aPath = StringSplit($sPath, "\") If NOT @Error Then $sFolder = $aPath[Ubound($aPath)-2] EndIf George Reveal hidden contents Question about decompiling code?
