Problem is lastPathComponent contains '/' as opposed to NSString counterpart which doesn't contains this. What is an elegant workaround? Didn't find an elegant answer in StackOverflow.

EDIT: Here is the real code that gives me issues:

  filenameField.text = path.lastPathComponent.deletingPathExtension
I fixed it by switching the two routines, i.e.
  filenameField.text = path.deletingPathExtension.lastPathComponent
                "/abc/def/xyz".lastPathComponent returns "xyz" without a slash. Can you add a concrete example demonstrating your problem?

                Get used to use URLs. There must be a reason why Apple removed the path manipulating API from String

                I updated the code. It is actually deletingPathExtension that is appending /. Please suggest correct code.
