Hi Rüdiger,
First, In my previous email, I made a mistake. It is GetOPENFolderItem that
fails on Linux, not GetFolderItem.
This is copied from the feedback report:
**************
dim f as folderitem
f = app.ExecutableFile
msgbox f.Child("file.ini").AbsolutePath
rem return wrong : "/home/petrfile.ini" oposite right: "/home/petr/file.ini"
Code fragment:
AppFolder = App.ExecutableFile
' Workaround because App.ExecutableFile points to the execution directory in
Linux, not the file ...
If Not AppFolder.Directory Then AppFolder = AppFolder.Parent
**************
Why do you think that App.ExecutableFile points to the enclosing folder? For
me, it points to the application. This means that in your first code above,
you are tying to get the .Child of a file, not a folder.
