Renaming exsisting files - RunUO

Killamus · 03-29-2008, 08:34 AM

Arg, my head hurts. I hated multi-dementional arrays in my C++ class, I still hate them.

In short: Program is designed to replace all of one letter with another as pertaining to a file name.
File gets renamed to said file name.
Problem:
File class contains no rename function. How do I do this?

Previously I've just used the copy function to make a new file, and then deleted the original.

Is this the only way to do it?

From the MSDN site:

MoveTo == Moves a specified file to a new location, providing the option to
specify a new file name.

.Net framework doesn't contain a Rename function. However, if you use the File.Move( string, string ) method, you should get the same results.
