extracting last 2 directories from a url

Colleagues:

How would I use the core or os3d api to take:

 [url]http://ifam.net/openspace/hybridui3/mainwindow/mainwindow.pak[/url] mainwindow/mainwindow.pak

And return:

mainwindow/mainwindow.pak

You can tell me where to look in the tools directories and I should be able to figure it out
Thx

Re: extracting last 2 directories from a url

how to get the last two directories as a string from a url:

  let "http://ifam.net/openspace/spacemanshooter17/dan_no_mohawk/spacemanshooter1.pak" -> urlsrc in	
  let getlastPathDir urlsrc -> destpathfile in
  let getFilePathWithoutExt destpathfile -> download_directory in
  let strcatn download_directory::"/"::destpathfile::nil-> destpath in

will return:

spacemanshooter/spacemanshooter1.pak

which is ok, (the file saves to cache and loads in player) although how would I get a return value of "dan_no_mohawk" from the full url?

let strcatn download_directory::"/"::destpathfile::nil-> destpath in

No ?
Why you write :

let getFilePathWithoutExt destpathfile -> download_directory in

Re: extracting last 2 directories from a url

getFilePathWithoutExt gets the file name without its extension.
By example
"getFilePathWithoutExt spacemanshooter1.pak" returns "spacemanshooter1"

I was thinking in my uneducated mind something involving slicing up a string into a list thx.

Re: extracting last 2 directories from a url

thx arkeon

for the scol overmind

how to use core api/os3d string tools to get the name of a file, preceded by a forward slash, preceded by the next higher directory

full url: "http://ifam.net/openspace/spacemanshoot … ooter1.pak"
string we want to use as path to save file in cache:   "dan_no_mohawk/spacemanshooter1.pak"

  getUrlContentLenght "http://ifam.net/openspace/spacemanshooter17/dan_no_mohawk/spacemanshooter1.pak" @cbGetContentLength;	
  let "http://ifam.net/openspace/spacemanshooter17/dan_no_mohawk/spacemanshooter1.pak" -> urlsrc in	
 //get the name of the file,  this is the 'lastpath'.  
  let getlastPathDir urlsrc -> destpathfile in
  //split string into list of strings s r1, each of which is before, between, or after a "/"
  let strToListSep urlsrc "/" -> urlist in
  //get the second to last string, which is the folder in which the file is found
  let nth_list urlist (sizelist urlist) - 2 ->secontolastdir in
  //put file's folder  together with / with file name 
  let strcatn secontolastdir::"/"::destpathfile::nil-> destpath in

this code produces the string: "dan_no_mohawk/spacemanshooter1.pak", which is the same string as lastpath, along with the name of the directory holding it.
