.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In libgen.h
|
|
.Ft char *
|
|
.Fn basename "char *path"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn basename
|
|
function takes the pathname pointed to by
|
|
.Ar path
|
|
and returns a pointer to the final component of the pathname,
|
|
deleting any trailing
|
|
.Sq /
|
|
characters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar path
|
|
consists entirely of
|
|
.Sq /
|
|
characters,
|
|
.Fn basename
|
|
returns a pointer to the string
|
|
.Dq / .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar path
|
|
is a null pointer or points to an empty string,
|
|
.Fn basename
|
|
returns a pointer to the string
|
|
.Dq \&. .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn basename
|

function returns a pointer to the final component of

.Sh BUGS
|
|
If the length of the result is longer than
|
|
.Dv PATH_MAX
|
|
bytes
|
|
.Pq including the terminating nul ,
|
|
the result will be truncated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn basename
|
|
function returns a pointer to static storage that may be overwritten
|
|
by subsequent calls to
|
|
.Fn basename .
|
|
This is not strictly a bug; it is explicitly allowed by
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2001 .
