It should be mentioned that the function returns the name of the directory if "filename" is of type "directory". Hence
<?php
$info = new SplFileInfo('/path/to/');
var_dump($info->getFilename());
?>
should return "to"
The function name is kind of misleading here and I am glad to have it tried.
SplFileInfo::getFilename
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.2)
SplFileInfo::getFilename — Gets the filename
Description
public string SplFileInfo::getFilename
( void
)
Gets the filename without any path information.
Parameters
This function has no parameters.
Return Values
The filename.
Examples
Example #1 SplFileInfo::getFilename() example
<?php
$info = new SplFileInfo('foo.txt');
var_dump($info->getFilename());
$info = new SplFileInfo('/path/to/foo.txt');
var_dump($info->getFilename());
$info = new SplFileInfo('http://www.php.net/');
var_dump($info->getFilename());
$info = new SplFileInfo('http://www.php.net/svn.php');
var_dump($info->getFilename());
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
string(7) "foo.txt" string(7) "foo.txt" string(0) "" string(7) "svn.php"
SplFileInfo::getFilename
