How can I get my exe path?

[Tony Caduto]

Hi,
In Delphi I could use paramstr(0) to get the full path to my exe during
runtime.
Does anyone know the C# equivilent?

Thanks a bunch,

System.Reflection.Assembly a = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly
();
string baseDir = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(a.Location);

Do you need a memory-leak finder ?

Do you need daily reports from your server?

You can use the Appliaction.StartupPath property for the same.

use the following
this.GetType().Assembly.CodeBase

This might not point to the dir of the EXE!

use the following
this.GetType().Assembly.CodeBase

This points to the dir of the current Assembly (if your assembly is NOT the
EXE it will might point to the wrong directory...)

Application.ExecutablePath

This also includes the name of the .exe.

Use the static method Path.GetDirectoryname on the Executable string
to exclude the exenam.exe part.
