No Application.StartupPath in .NET CF! There is a solution though…

December 16, 2009By 42Gears Team

Too bad there is no straight-forward way in net CF for an application to determine its folder path from where it was launched. But following code works just fine.

string assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase;

string currentFolderPath = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(assembly);

Enjoy...
