Question

I am trying to get the enclosing directory from a path:

DsVersions.ASSEMBLY2Row row = dsVersions.ASSEMBLY2.NewASSEMBLY2Row();
row.FOLDER = Path.GetDirectoryName(fileName);

What I get is the full path:

@"C:\Program Files (x86)\EdisonFactory\NetOffice\Plugins"

And what I need is just Plugins.

I think that I need to use Substring but I am not sure where or how.

Answer 1

You could use DirectoryInfo for help:

DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(Path.GetDirectoryName(fileName));
row.FOLDER = dir.Name;
