Revision 4721
Date: 2008-11-27 12:58:23 -0800 (Thu, 27 Nov 2008)
Author: Ed
Trac: http://svn.dabodev.com/trac/dabo/changeset/4721
Changed:
U trunk/dabo/dApp.py
Log:
Added the method 'getStandardAppDirectory()'. This takes one of the following
standard Dabo directory names and returns the path to that directory. It takes
an optional path location to start looking from; it will also search the app's
HomeDirectory.
The standard directory names are:
"biz", "cache", "db", "main.py", "reports", "resources", "test", "ui"
If the user requests a non-standard directory, a message is printed to the
errorLog and None is returned.
If the specified standard directory cannot be found, None is returned.
