Function `std.path.defaultExtension`


						
				immutable(C1)[] defaultExtension(C1, C2)(
				
  in C1[] path,
				
  in C2[] ext
				

				)
				

				if (isSomeChar!C1 && is(immutable(C1) == immutable(C2)));

Parameters

Name	Description
path	A path name.
ext	The default extension to use.

Returns

The path given by path, with the extension given by ext appended if the path doesn't already have one.

Including the dot in the extension is optional.

This function always allocates a new string, except in the case when path is immutable and already has an extension.

Example

writeln(defaultExtension("file", "ext")); // "file.ext"
writeln(defaultExtension("file", ".ext")); // "file.ext"
writeln(defaultExtension("file.", "ext")); // "file."
writeln(defaultExtension("file.old", "new")); // "file.old"
writeln(defaultExtension("file.old", ".new")); // "file.old"
