int GetProjectDir (char directoryName[]);
Gets the name of the directory that contains the currently loaded project file.
You can use GetProjectDir when you distribute a project and its related files to multiple users who might place the files in a different directory on each computer. If your program needs to access a file that is in the same directory as the project, you can use GetProjectDir and MakePathname to construct the full pathname.
In a stand-alone executable, the function obtains the directory containing the executable file.
/* Get the name of the directory that contains myfile. */
char *fileName;
char projectDir[MAX_PATHNAME_LEN];
char fullPath[MAX_PATHNAME_LEN];
fileName = "myfile";
if (GetProjectDir (projectDir) < 0)
FmtOut ("Project is untitled\n");
else
MakePathname (projectDir, fileName, fullPath);
