RE: [GD-Windows] Program directory

Isn't argument 0 to main the full path for the executable.

I think you can still get at the command line even if you are a windows =
app
and not a console app.

Subject: [GD-Windows] Program directory


Hi,
I would like to know how to retrieve the path where the program being
executed is. Usually it's the current working directory, that you can =
get
with getcwd, but in some cases that's not true. For example, when the
program is in the path or when you simply do: folder\program.exe
Is there any safe way of doing this?
I could save the name of the directory during installation or something =
like
that, but actually my program doesn't have any installation, so I would
prefer another option.
