get file address without file name from QFile

Question

I have a Qfile with fileName="d://f1/f2/img.jpg". I just want the address of the file ("d://f1/f2). How can I get it without converting to a QfileInfo?

Answer 1

check this link:

http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qfileinfo.html#absolutePath

file path:

QFileInfo fi("c:/temp/foo"); => fi.absoluteFilePath() => "C:/temp/foo"

also file base name:

QFileInfo fi("/tmp/archive.tar.gz");
QString base = fi.baseName();  // base = "archive"
