[Dev-C++] Need help with "directory"

[<qa...@ho...>]

Hi again list.

I want to know how to obtain the absolute path of the current directory. 
In java I can write something like this
  File curDir =3D new File(".");
  String curDirPath =3D curDir.getAbsolutePath();

How do I do this in c++? I've searched google and various other resources=
 but have found nothing of use (or it could be me that is blind)

I'm writing a console application that I run both at home (windows) and in=
 school (unix) so if it is possible to use the same code it would be great.

Regards,
