How to read file from the installation folder of app using c#?
I am reading a file using File.ReadAllText("filename.txt"). This file is located in very same folder where the .exe file is locate开发者_开发问答d (c:/program files/installation folder). But windows app looks into System32 folder for this file by default.
**I don't want to hard code the path of the file.
Try this function:
using System.Reflection;
private string MyDirectory()
{
return Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
}
Then use
File.ReadAllText(MyDirectory() + @"\filename.txt");
string path = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase );
Gives the directory of the exe. So using that with Path.Combine will give the desired result:
string filenamelocation = System.IO.Path.Combine(path, "filename.txt");
A lot shorter
File.ReadAllText(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "filename.txt");
So you need directory of your application? In that case, there are some good answers already on SO, for example:
