replace_extension(3)            Allegro manual            replace_extension(3)



NAME
       replace_extension - Replaces filename+extension with a new extension
       tail. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <allegro.h>


       char *replace_extension(char *dest, const char *filename, const char
       *ext, int size);

DESCRIPTION
       Replaces the specified filename+extension with a new extension tail,
       storing at most `size' bytes into the `dest' buffer. If the filename
       doesn't have any extension at all, `ext' will be appended to it, adding
       a dot character if needed. You can use the same buffer both as input
       and output because Allegro internally works on a copy of the input
       before touching `dest'. Example:

          replace_extension(buf, "C:\\game\\prog.exe",
                            "dat", sizeof(buf));

RETURN VALUE
       Returns a copy of the `dest' parameter.
