Text Manipulation V: Extracting Part of a String
This function can be used to extract the file name from a FileOut or FileIn node so you
can print it on a slate. Use it in a Text function.
const char *getBaseFilename(const char *fileName)
{
extern const char * strrchr(const char *, char);
const char *baseName = strrchr(fileName, ’/’);
return baseName ? baseName+1 : fileName;
}
To use it, place a line in the text parameter of a Text function, such as:
{getBaseFilename(FileIn1.imageName)}

how to use this function inside the node

please help me
