Variables:

static StringC AMDPrefix;: Defaults to "/a/"

Methods:

FilenameC(): Default constructor.

FilenameC(const SubStringC & nname): Construct from a SubStringC.
FilenameC(const FilenameC & ano): Copy constructor.
bool MakeDir(const FilePermissionC & Acc = FilePermissionC ()) const: Make a directory with this name.
Return: true = Directory created ok.
bool Exists() const: Test if the file/directory given in this path exists.
Return: true = File does exist.
bool Rename(const StringC & newname) const: Rename file.
This does NOT change the value of this filename. Ret true=Succeeded.
bool IsReadable() const: Test if the file/directory is readable by this process.
