Does such a thing exist in php? My searches have lead nowhere.
What I am looking for is a function which you would pass two parts of a
path to (which might be a directory and a filename, say) and it would
return a string containing the parameters separate by the correct number
of path separators according to the current OS.
For example:
<?php
$d = 'foo';
$f = 'bar';
$path = createPathString($d, $f);
?>
Would result in 'foo\bar' (Windows), 'foo/bar' (*n*x).
And
<?php
$d = 'foo/'; // note the trailing slash
$f = 'bar';
$path = createPathString($d, $f);
?>
on *n*x would also result in 'foo/bar' (i.e. the path would only contain
one "/").
