All rights reserved. +// Use of this source code is governed by a BSD-style license that can be +// found in the LICENSE file. + +// FilePath is a container for pathnames stored in a platform's native string +// type, providing containers for manipulation in according with the +// platform's conventions for pathnames. It supports the following path +// types: +// +// POSIX Windows +// --------------- ---------------------------------- +// Fundamental type char[] wchar_t[] +// Encoding unspecified* UTF-16 +// Separator / \, tolerant of / +// Drive letters no case-insensitive A-Z followed by : +// Alternate root // (surprise!) \\, for UNC paths +// +// * The encoding need not be specified on POSIX systems, although some +// POSIX-compliant systems do specify an encoding. Mac OS X uses UTF-8. +// Chrome OS also uses UTF-8. +// Linux does not specify an encoding, but in practice, the locale's +// character set may be used. +// +// For more arcane bits of path trivia, see below. +// +// FilePath objects are intended to be used anywhere paths are. An +// application may pass FilePath objects around internally, masking the +// underlying differences between systems, only differing in implementation +// where interfacing directly with the system. For example, a single +// OpenFile(const FilePath &) function may be made available, allowing all +// callers to operate without regard to the underlying implementation. On +// POSIX-like platforms, OpenFile might wrap fopen, and on Windows, it might +// wrap _wfopen_s, perhaps both by calling file_path.value().c_str(). This +// allows each platform to pass pathnames around without requiring conversions +// between encodings, which has an impact on performance, but more imporantly, +// has an impact on correctness on platforms that do not have well-defined +// encodings for pathnames. +// +// Several methods are available to perform common operations on a FilePath +// object, such as determining the parent directory (DirName), isolating the +// final path component (BaseName), and appending a relative pathname string +// to an existing FilePath object (Append). These methods are highly +// recommended over attempting to split and concatenate strings directly. +// These methods are based purely on string manipulation and knowledge of +// platform-specific pathname conventions, and do not consult the filesystem +// at all, making them safe to use without fear of blocking on I/O operations. +// These methods do not function as mutators but instead return distinct +// instances of FilePath objects, and are therefore safe to use on const +// objects. The objects themselves are safe to share between threads. +// +// To aid in initialization of FilePath objects from string literals, a +// FILE_PATH_LITERAL macro is provided, which accounts for the difference +// between char[]-based pathnames on POSIX systems and wchar_t[]-based +// pathnames on Windows. +// +// Paths can't contain NULs as a precaution agaist premature truncation. +// +// Because a FilePath object should not be instantiated at the global scope, +// instead, use a FilePath::CharType[] and initialize it with +// FILE_PATH_LITERAL. At runtime, a FilePath object can be created from the +// character array. Example: +// +// | const FilePath::CharType kLogFileName[] = FILE_PATH_LITERAL("log.txt"); +// | +// | void Function() { +// | FilePath log_file_path(kLogFileName); +// | [...] +// | } +// +// WARNING: FilePaths should ALWAYS be displayed with LTR directionality, even +// when the UI language is RTL. This means you always need to pass filepaths +// through base::i18n::WrapPathWithLTRFormatting() before displaying it in the +// RTL UI. +// +// This is a very common source of bugs, please try to keep this in mind. +// +// ARCANE BITS OF PATH TRIVIA +// +// - A double leading slash is actually part of the POSIX standard. Systems +// are allowed to treat // as an alternate root, as Windows does for UNC +// (network share) paths. Most POSIX systems don't do anything special +// with two leading slashes, but FilePath handles this case properly +// in case it ever comes across such a system. FilePath needs this support +// for Windows UNC paths, anyway. +// References: +// The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7, sections 3.266 ("Pathname") +// and 4.12 ("Pathname Resolution"), available at: +// http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap03.html#tag_03_266 +// http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap04.html#tag_04_12 +// +// - Windows treats c:\\ the same way it treats \\.
