Question

How do I get the full path for a given file?

e.g. I provide:

string filename = @\"test.txt\";

Result should be:

Full Fi         


        

Answer 1

Try

string fileName = "test.txt";
FileInfo f = new FileInfo(fileName);
string fullname = f.FullName;

Answer 2

Directory.GetCurrentDirectory

string dirpath = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();

Prepend this dirpath to the filename to get the complete path.

As @Dan Puzey indicated in the comments, it would be better to use Path.Combine

Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), filename)

Answer 3

You Can use:

string path = Path.GetFullPath(FileName);

it will return the Full path of that mentioned file.

Answer 4

private const string BulkSetPriceFile = "test.txt";
...
var fullname = Path.GetFullPath(BulkSetPriceFile);
