Is there a C++ equivalent to getcwd?
I see C's getcwd via: man 3 cwd I suspect C++ has a similar one, that could return me a std::string . If so, what is it called, and where can I find it's documentation? Thanks! ...
getcwd
Does the order I declare pointers really matter in C? getcwd() problem...
On a Solaris 5.8 machine, I have the following code: [non-working code] char *buf; char *dir; size_t psize; psize = (size_t) 1024; dir = getcwd(buf, psize); On this unix machine, the above does not work and I get a segmentation fault when trying to run the program. It only works if I declare dir before buf: [working code] char *d...
getcwd for current location based on ftp account permission
Hello. I'm trying to make a small script that's changing the permission for specific file using a ftp connection. My problem is the absolute path. I have a ftp account wich land on the script directory (/script/). If i'm using getcwd, it will return the whole path (/home/user/public_html/script) but i need only the difference between the...
What is a cross-platform way to get the current directory?
I need a cross-platform way to get the current working directory (yes, getcwd does what I want). I thought this might do the trick: #ifdef _WIN32 #include <direct.h> #define getcwd _getcwd // stupid MSFT "deprecation" warning #elif #include <unistd.h> #endif #include <string> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int mai...
How return a std::string from C's "getcwd" function
Sorry to keep hammering on this, but I'm trying to learn :). Is this any good? And yes, I care about memory leaks. I can't find a decent way of preallocating the char*, because there simply seems to be no cross-platform way. const string getcwd() { char* a_cwd = getcwd(NULL,0); string s_cwd(a_cwd); free(a_cwd); return s_...
What can I do if getcwd() and getenv("PWD") don't match?
I have a build system tool that is using getcwd() to get the current working directory. That's great, except that sometimes people have spaces in their paths, which isn't supported by the build system. You'd think that you could just make a symbolic link: ln -s "Directory With Spaces" DirectoryWithoutSpaces And then be happy. But u...
What could change the directory in php Windows besides chdir() and chroot()? (Simpletest include file bug in Windows)
(Sorry if this is titled poorly. I'm actually trying to accomplish two things - find out how the current directory can get changed in PHP, and fix a bug in Simpletest running on WAMP.) I'm running SimpleTest (simpletest.org) on my Windows 7 local machine on EasyPHP (a WAMP variation). When I run tests, the directory changes from the l...
