Get the path where the application resides.
Defined in <physfs.h>
const char * PHYSFS_getBaseDir(void);(const char *) Returns READ ONLY string of base dir in platform-dependent notation.
Helper function.
Get the "base dir". This is the directory where the application was run from, which is probably the installation directory, and may or may not be the process's current working directory.
You should probably use the base dir in your search path.
WARNING: On most platforms, this is a directory; on Android, this gives you the path to the app's package (APK) file. As APK files are just .zip files, you can mount them in PhysicsFS like regular directories. You'll probably want to call PHYSFS_setRoot(basedir, "/assets") after mounting to make your app's actual data available directly without all the Android metadata and directory offset. Note that if you passed a NULL to PHYSFS_init(), you will not get the APK file here.
It is safe to call this function from any thread.
This function is available since PhysicsFS 1.0.0.
