GLib.PathBuf.push

### Method

# GLib PathBufpush

since: 2.76

#### Declaration [src]

    GPathBuf*
    g_path_buf_push (
      GPathBuf* buf,
      const char* path
    )

#### Description [src]

Extends the given path buffer with `path`.

If `path` is absolute, it replaces the current path.

If `path` contains a directory separator, the buffer is extended by as many elements the path provides.

On Windows, both forward slashes and backslashes are treated as directory separators. On other platforms, `G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S` is the only directory separator.

    GPathBuf buf, cmp;

    g_path_buf_init_from_path (&buf, "/tmp");
    g_path_buf_push (&buf, ".X11-unix/X0");
    g_path_buf_init_from_path (&cmp, "/tmp/.X11-unix/X0");
    g_assert_true (g_path_buf_equal (&buf, &cmp));
    g_path_buf_clear (&cmp);

    g_path_buf_push (&buf, "/etc/locale.conf");
    g_path_buf_init_from_path (&cmp, "/etc/locale.conf");
    g_assert_true (g_path_buf_equal (&buf, &cmp));
    g_path_buf_clear (&cmp);

    g_path_buf_clear (&buf);

Available since: 2.76

#### Parameters

`path`

  Type: `const char*`

  A path.

  The data is owned by the caller of the method.
  The value is a platform-native string, using the preferred OS encoding on Unix and UTF-8 on Windows.

#### Return value

Type: `GPathBuf`

The same pointer to `buf`, for convenience.

The returned data is owned by the instance.
