Hello,
I'd like to open up the idea of Path being an object in
std.path. I've submitted a pull
(https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/1333)
that adds a Path struct to std.path, "which exposes a much
more palatable interface to path string manipulation".
For the record, there are some existing D path object
implementations:
* Tango's FilePath class:
https://github.com/SiegeLord/Tango-D2/blob/d2port/tango/io/FilePath.d
* Vibe's Path struct:
https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/vibe.d/blob/master/source/vibe/inet/path.d
The design of Path was prompted by Dub's own internal path
module, might I add. And if anything, this just goes to show that
a Path object indeed does have its use cases.
