I would recommend against trying to do this with general application of
a single regular expression.
If you only want something that starts with 'my-' and you're confident
no other path component has 'my-' in it, it'd be:
tokenize($file,'/')[starts-with(.,'my-')]
possibly
tokenize($file,'/')[matches(.,'my-','i')]
if you're not sure it's exactly 'my-'.
Or, classically,
tokenize($file,system-property('file.separator'))[last()]
or if your processor gives you access to the file EXPath module
( http://expath.org/spec/file ) it's modernly
file:name($file)
Standard and library functions always have better test cases; use them
if you can.
