 static cli::array <char> ^ GetInvalidFileNameChars();
public static char[] GetInvalidFileNameChars ();
static member GetInvalidFileNameChars : unit -> char[]
Public Shared Function GetInvalidFileNameChars () As Char()

An array containing the characters that are not allowed in file names.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the GetInvalidFileNameChars method and the GetInvalidPathChars method to retrieve invalid characters.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;

namespace PathExample
{
    public ref class GetCharExample
    {
    public:
        static void Main()
        {
            // Get a list of invalid path characters.
            array<Char>^ invalidPathChars = Path::GetInvalidPathChars();

            Console::WriteLine("The following characters are invalid in a path:");
            ShowChars(invalidPathChars);
            Console::WriteLine();

            // Get a list of invalid file characters.
            array<Char>^ invalidFileChars = Path::GetInvalidFileNameChars();

            Console::WriteLine("The following characters are invalid in a filename:");
            ShowChars(invalidFileChars);
        }

        static void ShowChars(array<Char>^ charArray)
        {
            Console::WriteLine("Char\tHex Value");
            // Display each invalid character to the console.
            for each (Char someChar in charArray)
            {
                if (Char::IsWhiteSpace(someChar))
                {
                    Console::WriteLine(",\t{0:X4}", (Int16)someChar);
                }
                else
                {
                    Console::WriteLine("{0:c},\t{1:X4}", someChar, (Int16)someChar);
                }
            }
        }
    };
};

int main()
{
    PathExample::GetCharExample::Main();
}
// Note: Some characters may not be displayable on the console.
// The output will look something like:
//
// The following characters are invalid in a path:
// Char    Hex Value
// ",      0022
// <,      003C
// >,      003E

Remarks

The array returned from this method is not guaranteed to contain the complete set of characters that are invalid in file and directory names. The full set of invalid characters can vary by file system. For example, on Windows-based desktop platforms, invalid path characters might include ASCII/Unicode characters 1 through 31, as well as quote ("), less than (<), greater than (>), pipe (|), backspace (\b), null (\0) and tab (\t).
