pm_sysPath::getDirName Interface Reference

Generate and return the dirname (directory name) part of the input path.
More...

Detailed Description

Generate and return the dirname (directory name) part of the input path.

By definition, the dirname segment of a path corresponds to the part that starts from the beginning of the path and ends with the character before the last directory separator in the path.
The behavior is consistent with the Unix dirname software the last directory separator from the output dirname.
For example, getDirName("./paramonte", "/") yields "." similar to the dirname software behavior.
Also, getDirName("/", "/") yields "/", again similar to the behavior of Unix dirname.

Note
Counterintuitively, the UNIX dirname command treats paths that end in a trailing slash not as a directory.
The trailing slash represents all files within the directory.
For example according to the POSIX dirname implementation,
/home/martin/docs/
represents the listing of all files within the specified directory.
To point to the directory, one has to add a . character after the final directory separator character / as in,
/home/martin/docs/.
By default, this generic interface follows the behavior implemented in POSIX dirname.
Alternatively, however, one may be interested in extracting the dirname of a path verbatim while keeping the trailing directory separator character in the output dirname.
For example, one may prefer to treat paths ending with a directory separator characters (e.g., DIR_SEP_POSIX_ALL or DIR_SEP_WINDOWS_ALL) as full directory names followed by an empty basename.
This leads to the more intuitive behavior of yielding "/" as the result of getIndexDirName("/", "/") (similar to POSIX dirname software) while yielding "paramonte" as the result of getIndexDirName("paramonte/", "/") (unlike the POSIX dirname software which returns ".") In order to also allow this interpretation and behavior, the procedures of this generic interface implement this latter style by setting the style argument of this generic interface to an object of type verbatim_type such as the constant verbatim.
For more details on this alternative behavior, see the examples below.

See also the details of the documentation of the generic interface getIndexDirName.

Parameters
[in]path: The input scalar character of default kind SK of arbitrary length type parameter containing the path to split.
[in]dirsep: The input scalar character of default kind SK of arbitrary length type parameter containing the runtime directory separator(s).
The directory separator can be obtained from either the dirsep component of an object of type shell_type or getDirSep.
The directory separator is \ or / in Windows-based terminals (e.g., CMD or PowerShell) and / in POSIX-compliant shells.
When in doubt (for example, in Windows terminals), dirsep can be set to multiple characters, for example dirsep = "/\".
In such a case, the input path will be scanned for the presence of any of the individual characters in dirsep.
[in]style: The input scalar that can be,
  1. the constant verbatim or an object of type verbatim_type implying the use of the ParaMonte style described above in extracting the output dirname.
(optional. If missing, the default behavior corresponds to that of the dirname command on POSIX systems. See examples below.)
Returns
dirname : The output allocatable scalar character of default kind SK containing the dirname segment of the input path.

pm_sysPath
This module contains classes and procedures for manipulating system file/folder paths.

pm_sysPath::verbatim

The scalar constant of type verbatim_type that can be used to signify the verbatim interpretation of ...
Definition: pm_sysPath.F90:367
Warning
The condition 0 < len(dirsep) must hold for the corresponding input arguments.
This condition is verified only if the library is built with the preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
The pure procedure(s) documented herein become impure when the ParaMonte library is compiled with preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
By default, these procedures are pure in release build and impure in debug and testing builds.
Note
See getIndexDirName for a faster method of getting the dirname segment of a path that avoids memory allocation.

Test:
test_pm_sysPath
Todo:
High Priority: The current Fortran standard 202x does not allow passing characters of non-default kind to the intrinsic Fortran statements and procedures.
As such, the implementation of this procedure for non-default character kinds leads to compile-time kind mismatch errors.
This procedure should be converted back to a generic interface in the future when non-default character kinds are also fully supported by the intrinsic functions.
