Subject: Bug in Filename.basename?
Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:45:38 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070905184538.88ada4e8.mle+ocaml@mega-nerd.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I think I have found a bug in the above function.
Objective Caml version 3.10.0
# let x = Filename.basename "a/b/c" ;;
val x : string = "c"
# let x = Filename.basename "a/b/c/" ;;
val x : string = "."
The first result is fine, but second result is definitely not what
one would reasonably expect.
For instance, the basename program in Linux gives:
> basename a/b/c/
c
