<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Task to determine the directory path of a specified file.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
When this task executes, it will set the specified property to the
|
2004-09-08 14:20:13 +00:00
|
|
|
value of the specified file (or directory) up to, but not including,
|
|
|
|
the last path element. If the specified file is a path that ends in a
|
|
|
|
filename, the filename will be dropped. If the specified file is just
|
|
|
|
a filename, the directory will be the current directory.

<p>
|
|
|
|
<em>Note:</em> This is not the same as the UNIX dirname command, which is
|
|
|
|
defined as "strip non-directory suffix from filename". <dirname>
|
|
|
|
determines the full directory path of the specified file.
|
|
|
