Print addon location

Anonymous — Tue, 01 Aug 2023 14:32:47 GMT

Hi,
is there any way to get the addon current working directory?
I have the addon in "Add-Ons" folder (INT version), but in other version (e.g. CZE) the path of addon is "Doplnky ArchiCADu". I tried the

IO::fileSystem.GetSpecialLocation (IO::FileSystem::ApplicationFolder, &appFolderLoc);
and
IO::fileSystem.GetSpecialLocation (IO::FileSystem::ApplicationFile, &appFolderLoc);

but this is only for the ArchiCAD.exe app.
Thx in advance.

Hi,

I think you are looking for the ACAPI_GetOwnLocation function.
This functions returns the location of the add-on in the file system. Check it in the documentation!

Best Regards,
Tibor
