DELPHI AREA Forum

hi,

i have a small question. is it possible to get the directory path in which deplhi exe running.

i will explain with small example:

i stored the deplhi exe of my project in c:\projects\dirpathretrivel\project.exe. if i run the exe, a message should appear that the exe is in "c:\projects\dirpathretrivel\" path.

is there any inbuilt command available to perform this operation or we need write function. if any command is not available means, please do help how to do this?

How about:

Application.ExeName or ParamStr(0)

I use this function...

// Return the executable file path with or without trailing backslash.
function Exe_Dir( TrailSlash : Boolean ) : String;
begin
Result := Set_Path( ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0)), TrailSlash );
end;
