GetInstDir() function.

[anmol2701]

I am using GetInstDir() to access the current directory of execution of my executable file

When I debugged the code the directory is coming like this one.

"D:\\SVN_NEW\\NewProject\\SetupScr\\..\\setup files\\setup.exe"

on execution of function SHFileOperation with this path it results in returning of value 2. Which is error file not found.

After that I hard code the path to

"D:\\SVN_NEW\\NewProject\\setup files\\setup.exe"

Which is working fine.

Now, the question is \\..\\ Is it giving problem. What should I do to change my directory to second one. As this is working fine and this is what I really need.


Welcome in case of any more information.

I use GetModuleFileName, and have never had any issues. You may want to give that a try.

First of all, I agree with GCDEF.
As for your "\\..\\" problem - you could use PathCanonicalize function to make your path compatible with SHFileOperation
