GET_PATH ​

Syntax ​

leo-grammar
CC "Application" GET_PATH [ strValue ] [ path-only [ append-delimiter ] ]

#--> RESULT path:strValue

Parameters ​

  • <main-parameter> (strValue) - when specified, it contains a file and GET_PATH returns the absolute path to this file. When no filename is specified, the installation directory of ADOxx is returned.
  • path-only (modifier) - when specified, the filename is omitted.
  • append-delimiter (modifier) - when specified, the '' is appended at the end of the path.

Returns ​

  • path (strValue) - contains the absolute path to the file.

Details ​

If GET_PATH is called on a root path (when giving no filename having e.g. the ADOxx directory being mapped to a network drive),
the path will have an appended \ character anyway.
