- wrap command-line retrieval of fileName with an implicit validate. Instead of this: fileName input(args[1]); fileName other(args["someopt"]); Now use this: auto input = args.get<fileName>(1); auto other = args.get<fileName>("someopt"); which adds a fileName::validate on the inputs Because of how it is implemented, it will automatically also apply to argList getOrDefault<fileName>, readIfPresent<fileName> etc. - adjust fileName::validate and clean to handle backslash conversion. This makes it easier to ensure that path names arising from MS-Windows are consistently handled internally. - dictionarySearch: now check for initial '/' directly instead of relying on fileName isAbsolute(), which now does more things BREAKING: remove fileName::clean() const method - relying on const/non-const to control the behaviour (inplace change or return a copy) is too fragile and the const version was almost never used. Replace: fileName sanitized = constPath.clean(); With: fileName sanitized(constPath); sanitized.clean()); STYLE: test empty() instead of comparing with fileName::null
