getshortpathname

Syntax

shortpath = getshortgpathname(longpath)
[shortpath, bOK] = getshortpathname(longpath)

Arguments

longpath

shortpath

a character string or a matrix of strings: the short path.

bOK

a boolean or a matrix of boolean: %T if path has been converted else %F.

Description

The getshortpathname primitive converts the specified path longpath to its short form.

Note: If the path cannot be converted (bOK is %F) and in particular if the operating system is not Windows, the returned short path is identical to the input long path.

[shortpath,bOK]=getshortpathname(SCI)
[shortpaths,bOKs]=getshortpathname([SCI;SCI])
