How do we get the path to the running Harbour executable?

[HGAutomator]

I know this function is somewhere, I've used it. But cannot recall how to get the Path of the Harbour executable that's running, in order to extract the folder where it's running from.

Hi... Try:
In HMG:
cPath := AllTrim ( GetCurrentFolder ())
In Clipper / Harbour:
cPath := AllTrim ( DirName())

Hello,Try this function too:
hb_dirbase()
hb_DirBase() ➜ cDirName
returns the application's executable base directory (program statrtup directory).

Hi

Try hb_FNameDir( hb_DirBase() )

[HGAutomator]

hb_dirbase(). Never heard of this one, but it does the trick.

Thanks Claudio, huiyi, and vlademiro.

Correction in my answer.

hb_DirBase() is the correct answer.

Other answer (not best) :

hb_FNameDir (ExeName()) // Requires hbct.hbc
