Re: Relative path

Hi Hilaire,

You what is the Platform clipartsPath ?

I am thinking that what you need is :
FileSystem workingDirectory / 'fruits' / 'apples.png’

something like that.

It is something like
FileSystem disk workingDirectory parent / 'Cliparts

Yes but no, I want 'fruits' / 'apples.png’ to be defined in another
methods like, in a clean way:

getApple
self getClipart: 'fruits' / 'apples.png’

hi,

you can create a relative path with

Path class>>*

p:=Path * 'fruits' / 'apples.png'.

If you want to create an absolute path or the full filename you need

a FileReference for that directory and call #resolve:

(for example wit hth current directory)

FileSystem workingDirectory resolve:p
