PA_Get4Dfolder

version 2003

PA_Get4Dfolder (FolderPath)

The routine PA_Get4Dfolder returns the long name of the 4D folder just as the 4D Command 4D Folder does.

By using the PA_Get4Dfolder routine to get the actual pathname to that folder, you ensure that your code will work on any platform running any localized system -- even if the path or the name of this folder changes in future versions of 4th Dimension.

See the 4D Folder documentation for more information about the folder content.

Creating a full path to a private preference file in the 4D Folder.

   void CreatePrefFilePath ( char *pref )
   {
      // Get the path to the 4D Folder
      PA_Get4DFolder( pref );
      // Concat. the pref file name
      strcat( pref, "MyPuginPref" );
   }
