I have the following code, working under Win and Linux:--- import std.process: environment; immutable string p; static this() { version(Win32) p = environment.get("APPDATA"); version(linux) p = "/home/" ~ environment.get("USER"); version(OSX) p = "?"; } --- what would be the OSX equivalent (to get the path where the applications data are commonmly stored)?
They are usually defined as constants in Objective-C. You can read more about it here [1][2][3].
You can also use the CoreServices framework which has a C API [4]. But I think it's deprecated and the preferred way is to use the Objective-C API's.
