Remove file extension from a file name string
I used the below, less code
string fileName = "C:\file.docx";
MessageBox.Show(Path.Combine(Path.GetDirectoryName(fileName),Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(fileName)));
Output will be
C:\file
How can I remove the extension of a filename in a shell script?
You should be using the command substitution syntax $(command)
when you want to execute a command in script/command.
So your line would be
name=$(echo "$filename" | cut -f 1 -d '.')
Code explanation:
echo
get the value of the variable$filename
and send it to standard output- We then grab the output and pipe it to the
cut
command - The
cut
will use the . as delimiter (also known as separator) for cutting the string into segments and by-f
we select which segment we want to have in output - Then the
$()
command substitution will get the output and return its value - The returned value will be assigned to the variable named
name
Note that this gives the portion of the variable up to the first period .
:
$ filename=hello.world
$ echo "$filename" | cut -f 1 -d '.'
hello
$ filename=hello.hello.hello
$ echo "$filename" | cut -f 1 -d '.'
hello
$ filename=hello
$ echo "$filename" | cut -f 1 -d '.'
hello
How to trim a file extension from a String in JavaScript?
If you know the length of the extension, you can use x.slice(0, -4)
(where 4 is the three characters of the extension and the dot).
If you don't know the length @John Hartsock regex would be the right approach.
If you'd rather not use regular expressions, you can try this (less performant):
filename.split('.').slice(0, -1).join('.')
Note that it will fail on files without extension.
C# Remove file extension from string list
The Substring
method returns a new fresh copy of the string, copied from the source one. If you want to "cut the extension off", then you must fetch what Substring returns and store it somewhere, i.e.:
int i = list1[n].LastIndexOf(".");
if (i > 0)
list1[n] = list1[n].Substring(0, i);
However, this is quite odd way to remove an extension.
Firstly, use of Substring(0,idx)
is odd, as there's a Remove(idx)
(link) which does exactly that:
int i = list1[n].LastIndexOf(".");
if (i > 0)
list1[n] = list1[n].Remove(i);
But, sencondly, there's even better way of doing it: the System.IO.Path
class provides you with a set of well written static methods that, for example, remove the extension (edit: this is what L-Three suggested in comments), with full handling of dots and etc:
var str = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension("myfile.txt"); // == "myfile"
See MSDN link
It still returns a copy and you still have to store the result somewhere!
list1[n] = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension( list1[n] );
Extract filename and extension in Bash
First, get file name without the path:
filename=$(basename -- "$fullfile")
extension="${filename##*.}"
filename="${filename%.*}"
Alternatively, you can focus on the last '/' of the path instead of the '.' which should work even if you have unpredictable file extensions:
filename="${fullfile##*/}"
You may want to check the documentation :
- On the web at section "3.5.3 Shell Parameter Expansion"
- In the bash manpage at section called "Parameter Expansion"
String from file names - How remove the extension?
You could use Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension
foreach(string file in filenames)
List0.Items.Add(System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(file));
Also, you could try without an explicit loop (I suppose that list0 is a System.Windows.Control.ListBox
)
list0.ItemsSource = filenames.Select(d => Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(d)).ToList();

Easy way to remove extension from a filename?
size_t lastindex = fullname.find_last_of(".");
string rawname = fullname.substr(0, lastindex);
Beware of the case when there is no "." and it returns npos
Flutter how to remove file extension when i need to put file name into variable
You just use 'basenameWithoutExtension' method like basename.
File newFile = File(filepath);
String name = p.basename(newFile.path);
String nameWithoutExtension = p.basenameWithoutExtension(newFile.path);
