Consider this test:
dim f as new FolderItem
dim origpath as String = f.AbsolutePath
dim newpath as string = TemporaryFolder.Child("Test").AbsolutePath
f.AbsolutePath = newpath
if f.AbsolutePath = newpath then
MsgBox "Updated to new path"
Elseif f.AbsolutePath = origpath then
MsgBox "Update failed. Error = "+ str( f.LastErrorCode )
else
MsgBox "Unexpected result. Path is now:" + EndOfLine + f.AbsolutePath
end if
break
I tried this on Vista (and OS X just to confirm). The folderitem still
points to the original path and no error is reported.
I'm using the Windows registry and have found using getsaveinfo to store
folderitems inconvenient. I thought Absolute path would be a legit
alternative for Windows apps but it appears to fail silently.
Am I missing something?
