Hi,

   I want to test a string to see if it a valid file-name (even if 
the file does not exist).

Does STLSoft (or PlatformSTL) provide any way to do this?

Thanks,
Adi

No, but it arguably should.

I'm hoping to finally get 1.10-proper going soon, so maybe that can be added 
in then. Are you interested in working on it with me? :-)

Did a chunk of this a few days ago. Will send through to you off-list, and 
we can talk more about it then.

Note: it's somewhat complicated/verbose/constrained because I required it to 
be C-compatible.

P.S. Nearly there on the other stuff we've been talking about ... ;-)

 Sure. I can do a Windows version.
 Please suggest a proper API.
 We can take it off-list.
