orbs Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 hello everyone, suppose i have a given filename (e.g. "letter.doc"), and a given mask (e.g. "*.doc"). i want to check if the filename fits the mask. i started to work on a script that splits the filename using the known part of the mask as delimiter, and matches the split parts with the * and ? in the mask. in this example, the delimiter is ".doc", the split part of the filename is "letter" and the split part of the mask is "*", so i can match. but this is getting too complicated for more complex masks. is there a simple way to do it? thanks in advance, Or Signature - my forum contributions: Spoiler UDF: LFN - support for long file names (over 260 characters) InputImpose - impose valid characters in an input control TimeConvert - convert UTC to/from local time and/or reformat the string representation AMF - accept multiple files from Windows Explorer context menu DateDuration - literal description of the difference between given dates Apps: Touch - set the "modified" timestamp of a file to current time Show For Files - tray menu to show/hide files extensions, hidden & system files, and selection checkboxes SPDiff - Single-Pane Text Diff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 You could also look at the _PathSplit command, it will split a file name into its component parts such as Drive letter, path, file name, and file extension. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

UEZ Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Best is probably _PathSplit() and StringRegExp() in combination. Br, UEZ Please don't send me any personal message and ask for support!

Malkey Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 This function appears to work.It converts a wildcard mask into a regular expression pattern.ConsoleWrite(_CheckFilenameFitsMask("letter.doc", "*.doc") & @CRLF) ; Description - Checks if a file name, $sFileName, fits a wildcard mask, $sMask, with optional case-insensitivity. ; $sMask - A pattern string can be a combination of valid file name characters and wildcard characters. ; $CaseSensitive - Case sensitivity default = 1 meaning "function is case sensitive". ; Returns 1 (matched) or 0 (no match). ; Func _CheckFilenameFitsMask($sFileName, $sMask = "*", $CaseSensitive = 1) $sMask = StringRegExpReplace($sMask, "([\.\\])", "\\\1") $sMask = StringReplace($sMask, "?", ".") $sMask = StringReplace($sMask, "*", ".*") If $CaseSensitive <> 1 Then $sMask = "(?i)" & $sMask ;ConsoleWrite($sMask & @CRLF) Return StringRegExp($sFileName, $sMask) EndFunc ;==>_CheckFilenameFitsMask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
