_get_bundle_prefix_dir()

static std::string _get_bundle_prefix_dir ( )

static

Guess the absolute path of the application bundle prefix directory.

The result path is not guaranteed to exist.

On Windows, the result should be identical to g_win32_get_package_installation_directory_of_module(nullptr)

get_inkscape_datadir()

char const * get_inkscape_datadir

(

)

Determine the location of the Inkscape data directory (typically the share/ folder from where Inkscape should be loading resources).

The data directory is the first of:

• Environment variable $INKSCAPE_DATADIR if not empty
• If a bundle is detected: "<bundle-prefix>/share"
• Compile time value of INKSCAPE_DATADIR

get_program_dir()

char const * get_program_dir

Gets the the full path to the directory containing the currently running program's executable.

Returns

full path to directory encoded in native encoding, or NULL if it can't be determined

set_xdg_env()

void set_xdg_env

(

)

Sets environment variables for a relocatable application bundle.

Only does work on the first call, follow-up calls immediately return.

Only sets environment variables if this actually looks like a relocatable bundle.

Currently only handles macOS. Windows and Linux (AppImage) use alternative solutions.
