Directory.GetParent(String) Method

Definition

Retrieves the parent directory of the specified path, including both absolute and relative paths.

public:
 static System::IO::DirectoryInfo ^ GetParent(System::String ^ path);
public static System.IO.DirectoryInfo GetParent (string path);
public static System.IO.DirectoryInfo? GetParent (string path);
static member GetParent : string -> System.IO.DirectoryInfo
Public Shared Function GetParent (path As String) As DirectoryInfo

Parameters

path
String

The path for which to retrieve the parent directory.

Returns

The parent directory, or null if path is the root directory, including the root of a UNC server or share name.

Exceptions

The directory specified by path is read-only.

The caller does not have the required permission.

.NET Framework and .NET Core versions older than 2.1: path is a zero-length string, contains only white space, or contains one or more invalid characters. You can query for invalid characters with the GetInvalidPathChars() method.

path is null.

The specified path, file name, or both exceed the system-defined maximum length. For more information, see the PathTooLongException topic.

The specified path was not found.

path is in an invalid format.

.NET Framework only: The caller does not have the required permissions.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the GetParent method to retrieve the parent directory of a user-specified location, "path". The value returned by the GetParent method is then printed to the console. The example is configured to catch all errors common to this method.

Remarks

The path parameter can specify relative or absolute path information. Relative path information is interpreted as relative to the current working directory. To obtain the current working directory, see GetCurrentDirectory.

Trailing spaces are removed from the end of the path parameter before getting the directory.

The string returned by this method consists of all characters in the path up to, but not including, the last DirectorySeparatorChar or AltDirectorySeparatorChar. For example, passing the path "C:\Directory\SubDirectory\test.txt" to GetParent returns "C:\Directory\SubDirectory". Passing "C:\Directory\SubDirectory" returns "C:\Directory". However, passing "C:\Directory\SubDirectory\" returns "C:\Directory\SubDirectory", because the ending directory separator is after "SubDirectory".

The case-sensitivity of the path parameter corresponds to that of the file system on which the code is running. For example, it's case-insensitive on NTFS (the default Windows file system) and case-sensitive on Linux file systems.
