Path does not exist in current context c# .net coding?

Question

In my c# code when I used Path.GetExtension , It is showing "Path does not exist in current context". Seems libraries for Path does not exist in current application. But I searched and found Path class defined in System.IO and System.IO is by default part of our application. After included System.IO the error exist.

do you have `using System.IO;` on the beginning of your .cs file? — Nino, Jun 29 '17 at 07:22
Please post the exact compiler error you get. Also, post the exact line of code (or lines of code) that give you that error. — Lasse V. Karlsen, Jun 29 '17 at 07:30
The library for Path is the core .NET library, so it's *always* available. Obviously something is wrong with your code. Post your code, the *full* compile error and the line where it occured — Panagiotis Kanavos, Jun 29 '17 at 07:42

You need to add namespace

using System.IO;

And your path should be :

string str= Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);

Second way :

string str= System.IO.Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);

Then it will work.

Cheers !!
