GetDirName Works Only for Boot Drive in Macintosh QuickBASIC (64104)
This article was previously published under Q64104
SUMMARY
The GetDirName Toolbox Library (MBLC) routine correctly returns the
folder name (commonly called the pathname) when given a volume
reference number of either -1 or 0. Different numbers representing
other drives either give the error message "String Too Long" if a
device is present and being used, or a null or meaningless string if
the boot drive is the only device active.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft QuickBASIC
version 1.00 for Apple Macintosh. We are researching this problem and
will post new information here as it becomes available.
