Public Member Functions
	Path (const char *)
	Path (const String &)
	Path (String &&)
	Path (const Path &)
	Path (Path &&)
void	clear ()
	postcondition: this->empty() is true.
Path &	make_absolute ()
	postcondition: For the returned path, is_absolute() is true.
Path &	make_preferred ()
	Convert the contained pathname to the native format.
Path &	remove_filename ()
	if has_parent_path() then remove the last filename from the stored path.
Path &	replace_extension (const String &new_extension=String())
	postcondition: extension() == new_extension (where a leading dot has been removed from replacement, if present)
void	swap (Path &)
	swaps the contents of the two paths.
String	string () const
	returns the stored path, formatted according to the operating system rules for regular file pathnames
Path	root_name () const
	returns the root name (e.g. d:/path/filename.ext -> d:)
Path	root_directory () const
	returns the root directory (e.g. d:/path/filename.ext -> /)
Path	root_path () const
	returns root_name() + root_directory()
Path	relative_path () const
	returns the stored path without root_path() (e.g. d:/path/file.ext -> path/file.ext)
Path	parent_path () const
	returns the parent directory, if any (e.g. d:/path/filename.ext -> d:/path/)
Path	filename () const
	returns the filename (i.e. /path/filename.ext -> filename.ext)
String	stem () const
	returns the filename without extension (i.e. /path/filename.ext -> filename)
String	extension () const
	returns the filename extension (i.e. /path/filename.ext -> .ext)

bool	is_absolute () const
	returns true if the elements of root_path() uniquely identify a directory, else false
bool	is_relative () const
	returns !is_absolute()
Path &	normalize ()
	Replace symlinks, replace '/' with '\', replace "foo/../bar" with "bar", etc.
String	compressed (size_type length) const
	shorten path to length, e.g. d:/foo_long_directory_name/bar.txt -> d:/foo.../bar.txt
