Exists any multiplatform function which check if string contains not allowed characters (like < > / \ on windows) for filename?
The question is: Do you realy need it? I came to the conclusion that it's very hard to determine what exactly is a valid file name and that it is much easier, safer, platform independend and more future proof to just try creating a file with the name. If it fails, you can check the error result for the reason. And even if the file name is valid it does not prevent you from error checking because other obstacles like missing rights can also prevent you from using the file(path) name. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
