GetCurrentDirectory
The GetCurrentDirectory
function retrieves the current directory for the current process.
DWORD GetCurrentDirectory(
|
DWORD nBufferLength, |
// size, in
characters, of directory buffer |
|
LPTSTR lpBuffer |
// address of
buffer for current directory |
|
); |
|
Parameters
nBufferLength
Specifies the
length, in characters, of the buffer for the current directory string. The
buffer length must include room for a terminating null character.
lpBuffer
Points to the
buffer for the current directory string. This null-terminated string specifies
the absolute path to the current directory.
Return Values
If the
function succeeds, the return value specifies the number of characters written
to the buffer, not including the terminating null character.
If the
function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information,
call GetLastError.
If the buffer
pointed to by lpBuffer is not large enough, the return value specifies
the required size of the buffer, including the number of bytes necessary for a
terminating null character.
