Project::GetPath

Description

Returns the file system path for the currently opened project. By default, the path includes a trailing backslash. If the project has not been saved, the path to the Origin User Files folder is returned.

Both of these behaviors can be overridden by the passing the PROJ_PATH_NO_ENDING_SLASH or PROJ_PATH_UNSAVED_EMPTY constants as parameters to the function. The constant can be combined per the example provided below.

Syntax

string GetPath( )

Parameters

Optionally accepts the PROJ_PATH_NO_ENDING_SLASH or PROJ_PATH_UNSAVED_EMPTY constants or combined PROJ_PATH_NO_ENDING_SLASH|PROJ_PATH_UNSAVED_EMPTY.

Return

The file system path for the currently opened project.
