Resolve-FullPath

Converts a relative path to an absolute path.

Syntax

Resolve-FullPath [-Path] <String> [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Unlike Resolve-Path, this function does not check whether the path exists. It just converts relative paths to absolute paths.

Unrooted paths (e.g. ..\..\See\I\Do\Not\Have\A\Root) are first joined with the current directory (as returned by Get-Location).

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Required?	Pipeline Input	Default Value
Path	String	The path to resolve. Must be rooted, i.e. have a drive at the beginning.	true	false

EXAMPLE 1

Resolve-FullPath -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon\Test\..\Carbon\FileSystem.ps1'

Returns C:\Projects\Carbon\Carbon\FileSystem.ps1.

EXAMPLE 2

Resolve-FullPath -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon\..\I\Do\Not\Exist'

Returns C:\Projects\I\Do\Not\Exist.

EXAMPLE 3

Resolve-FullPath -Path ..\..\Foo\..\Bar

Because the Path isn't rooted, joins Path with the current directory (as returned by Get-Location), and returns the full path. If the current directory is C:\Projects\Carbon, returns C:\Bar.
