Re: Finding path of file / folder present on emulator

2010-05-20 Thread Pallavi Kandhare 
Hi,
I am working on N900 emulator. 
When i use the following commands in my code
getenv(HOME) or getenv(MYDOCSDIR) they give me the path present on 
Scratchbox file-system.

N900 emulator contains some folders like Images listed inside File Manager 
folder. I want to find path of the Images folder. How can i get it?

Thanks.

Hi Pallavi!

  You can use g_get_user_special_dir(G_USER_DIRECTORY_PICTURES);

Thanks, Daniil.

Re: Finding path of file / folder present on emulator

2010-05-20 Thread Pallavi Kandhare 

Hi Daniil,
I tried using suggested APIs 

  G_USER_DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS,
  G_USER_DIRECTORY_PICTURES,
  G_USER_DIRECTORY_VIDEOS 

const char *dir = g_get_user_special_dir (G_USER_DIRECTORY_VIDEOS);
if (dir == NULL)
printf(NULL);
else
printf(%s,dir);

But every time it returns me NULL value. It means the logical id isnt found. 
But these folders are present on N900 emulator

Pls suggest if any thing else needs to be done?

Thanks

Hi Pallavi!

   It works on N900 you may file a bug about scratchbox here:
   https://bugs.maemo.org/
   const char *dir = g_strdup(g_get_user_special_dir (G_USER_DIRECTORY_VIDEOS));
   if (!dir) {
  dir = g_strconcat (getenv(MYDOCSDIR), /.videos, NULL);
   }
   printf(%s\n, dir ? dir : NULL);
   g_free(dir);

Thanks, Daniil.

Hi Pallavi!

  And what is File Manager folder? If you are asking about user's home
directory,
 then you can get it with getenv(HOME) or getenv(MYDOCSDIR) for MyDocs
directory.

Thanks, Daniil.

Do you mean that you want to show a file chooser dialog, like:

http://maemomm.garage.maemo.org/docs/tutorial/figures/filechooser.png

so that you can select a file? If so, you would use hildonfm:

http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/hildonfm/HildonFileChooserDialog.html

You will need to use the ‘hildon-fm-2’ module with pkg-config so that 
you can compile and link against the hildonfm headers and libraries.


As HildonFileChooserDialog implements the GtkFileChooser interface, you 
will also want to read the API reference for that:


http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkFileChooser.html

Also, the GtkFileChooserDialog documentation has some useful examples:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkFileChooserDialog.html

I am not quite sure if this was what you wanted, so let me know if 
this solves your problem.
