How To Find the Path to a Temporary Folder in Windows CE (297802)

MORE INFORMATION

DWORD GetTempPath(/*[in]*/ DWORD cchBufferLength, /*[out]*/ LPTSTR lpBuffer);
				

• cchBufferLength - The length, in characters, of the buffer pointed to by lpBuffer.
• lpBuffer - The pointer to a string buffer that will hold the returned path to the temporary folder.

• If the return value is less than or equal to the value passed in the cchBufferLength parameter, it specifies the number of characters returned in the lpBuffer parameter, not counting the NULL terminator.
• If the return value is greater than the value passed in the cchBufferLength parameter, it specifies the number of characters needed in the lpBuffer parameter. This count of characters includes the NULL terminator.

void CGetMyTempPath::OnGetTempPath() 
{
	_TCHAR	tszTempPath[MAX_PATH + 1];
	DWORD	cchTempPath = sizeof(tszTempPath)/sizeof(_TCHAR);
	_TCHAR	tszPathLength[100];
	DWORD	cchPathLength;
	
	cchPathLength = ::GetTempPath(cchTempPath, tszTempPath);
	if(cchPathLength > cchTempPath)
	{
		AfxMessageBox(_T("Temp path buffer is too small."));
	}
	else
	{
		_stprintf(tszPathLength, _T("Length of the path is %d"), cchPathLength); 
		AfxMessageBox(tszTempPath);
		AfxMessageBox(tszPathLength);
	}
