39 // This class supposes that data, plugins &c files are located under the
40 // program directory which is the directory containing the application
41 // binary itself. But sometimes this binary may be in a subdirectory of the
42 // main program directory, e.g. this happens in at least the following
44 // 1. The program is in "bin" subdirectory of the installation directory.
45 // 2. The program is in "debug" subdirectory of the directory containing
46 // sources and data files during development
48 // By calling this function you instruct the class to remove the last
49 // component of the path if it matches its argument. Notice that it may be
50 // called more than once, e.g. you can call both IgnoreAppSubDir("bin") and
51 // IgnoreAppSubDir("debug") to take care of both production and development
52 // cases above but that each call will only remove the last path component.
53 // Finally note that the argument can contain wild cards so you can also
54 // call IgnoreAppSubDir("vc*msw*") to ignore all build directories at once
55 // when using wxWidgets-inspired output directories names.
