Trait PathExt 

pub trait PathExt {
    // Required methods
    fn normalize(&self) -> PathBuf;
    fn canonicalize_or_self(&self) -> PathBuf;
    fn file_name_str(&self) -> String;
}

Extension trait that adds path normalization and safety methods to Path.

Delegates to the existing free functions in this module, providing a more ergonomic call-site syntax:

use vtcode_commons::paths::PathExt;
use std::path::Path;

let normalized = Path::new("/tmp/project/src/../src/lib.rs").normalize();

Required Methods

fn normalize(&self) -> PathBuf

Normalize a path by resolving . and .. components lexically.

fn canonicalize_or_self(&self) -> PathBuf

Canonicalize with fallback to the original path if canonicalization fails.

fn file_name_str(&self) -> String

Extract the filename from a path as a String, with fallback to the full path when no filename component exists.

Unlike Path::file_name which returns Option<&OsStr>, this method always returns a String and falls back gracefully.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
