Issue status update for http://smalltalk.gnu.org/project/issue/202 Post a follow up: http://smalltalk.gnu.org/project/comments/add/202

Project:      GNU Smalltalk
Version:      <none>
Component:    Base classes
Category:     feature requests

+Status:       works for me

Actually there is:

   *  you can use File class>>#pathFor: to get the parent path as a
String from a String:




  File pathFor: Directory working


   *  you can use File>>#path to get the parent path as a String from
a File or Directory:


  (Directory name: Directory working) path


   *  you can use File>>#directory to get the parent path as a
Directory from a File or Directory:


  (Directory name: Directory working) directory

In 3.1 the File/Directory classes will be overhauled, including the
following: 1) the #directory method will be renamed to #parent; 2)
Directory working will return a directory.  So you will use the
following two snippets to get the enclosing directory as an object or
as a String, respectively:

  Directory working parent
  Directory working path
