FileInfo.ValidateFIleName

[elena12345]

Is there a way to validate a file name in C#? I know I could easily code this up myself, but this is something everyone always needs, so I am in total denial that there is no function like that in C# libraries. :omg: Thanks, Elena

What do you mean validate a file name? Validate how? That it matches some naming scheme, is a certain length? Then the answer is no.

Try creating a file using an invalid file name and see if an exception happens, and handle the exception.
