Description
struct GPathBuf {
/* No available fields */
}
GPathBuf is a helper type that allows you to easily build paths from
individual elements, using the platform specific conventions for path separators.
g_auto (GPathBuf) path;
g_path_buf_init (&path);
g_path_buf_push (&path, "usr");
g_path_buf_push (&path, "bin");
g_path_buf_push (&path, "echo");
g_autofree char *echo = g_path_buf_to_path (&path);
g_assert_cmpstr (echo, ==, "/usr/bin/echo");
You can also load a full path and then operate on its components:
g_auto (GPathBuf) path;
g_path_buf_init_from_path (&path, "/usr/bin/echo");
g_path_buf_pop (&path);
g_path_buf_push (&path, "sh");
g_autofree char *sh = g_path_buf_to_path (&path);
g_assert_cmpstr (sh, ==, "/usr/bin/sh");
