Objective-C Extract filename from path string

Question

When I have NSString with  Users user Projects thefile ext I want to extract thefile with Objective-C methods   What is the easiest way to do that

User · Answer

At the risk of being years late and off topic - and notwithstanding  Marc s excellent insight  in Swift it looks like   let basename   NSURL string   path to file ext    URLByDeletingPathExtension  lastPathComponent

User · Answer

Taken from the NSString reference  you can use    NSString  theFileName     string lastPathComponent  stringByDeletingPathExtension     The lastPathComponent call will return thefile ext  and the stringByDeletingPathExtension will remove the extension suffix from the end

If you re displaying a user-readable file name  you do not want to use lastPathComponent  Instead  pass the full path to NSFileManager s displayNameAtPath  method  This basically does does the same thing  only it correctly localizes the file name and removes the extension based on the user s preferences
