Prototype

int getcurdir(int drive, char *directory);

int _wgetcurdir(int drive, wchar_t *directory );

Description

Gets current directory for specified drive.

getcurdir gets the name of the current working directory for the drive indicated by drive. drive specifies a drive number (0 for default, 1 for A, and so on). directory points to an area of memory of length MAXDIR where the null-terminated directory name will be placed. The name does not contain the drive specification and does not begin with a backslash.

Return Value

getcurdir returns 0 on success or -1 in the event of error.

Example

 #include <dir.h>
 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <string.h>
 char *current_directory(char *path)
 {
   strcpy(path, "X:\\");      /* fill string with form of response: X:\ */
   path[0] = 'A' + getdisk();    /* replace X with current drive letter */
   getcurdir(0, path+3);  /* fill rest of string with current directory */
   return(path);
 }
 int main(void)
 {
   char curdir[MAXPATH];
   current_directory(curdir);
   printf("The current directory is %s\n", curdir);
   return 0;
 }
