combine_path()

char * combine_path	(	const char *	first_path,
		const char *	second_path )

Combines two file paths into a single path.

This function takes two file paths as input and concatenates them into a single path. If the first path does not end with a directory separator ('/' or '\'), one will be added between the two paths.

Parameters

first_path	The first part of the file path as a null-terminated string.
second_path	The second part of the file path as a null-terminated string.

Returns

A newly allocated string containing the combined file path. The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string.

mkpath()

void mkpath

(

const char *

file_path

)

Creates a directory path.

This function takes a file path as input and creates the directory structure specified by the path. It uses the system's mkdir command with the -p option to create any necessary parent directories.

Parameters

file_path

The directory path to create as a null-terminated string.

path_get_directory()

char * path_get_directory

(

char *

path

)

Extracts the directory part of a given file path.

This function takes a file path as input and returns a new string containing only the directory part of the path. If the input path does not contain any directory separators ('/' or '\'), the original path is returned.

Parameters

path	The input file path as a null-terminated string.

Returns

A newly allocated string containing the directory part of the path, or the original path if no directory separators are found. The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string.
