.NET path manipulation library

Question

Does anyone know of any good library that abstracts the problem of path manipulation in a nice way? I\'d like to be able to combine and parse paths with arbitrary separators

Answer 1

I'm afraid you'll have to implement a path class yourself, as I did. It gives the following advantages:

• you can profit from type safety
• you can override operator/, which makes concatenation easier
• you can add convenience member functions such as GetParentPath() and GetLeafPart()
