Examples

EX1

void get_origin_path_type_ex1()
{    
    //-- to illustrate, first use okutil_get_origin_path to get some origin paths on your computer
    string strPath1 = okutil_get_origin_path(ORIGIN_PATH_USER, "Themes\\Graph") + "file.ext";// this file need not exist on your computer.
    string strPath2 = okutil_get_origin_path(ORIGIN_PATH_SYSTEM, "Themes\\Graph") + "file.ext";// this file need not exist on your computer.
    
    
    // next, get the path type from the string strPath. The path can be a file path or just a path to a folder. The file or folder need not exist.
    int nPathType = okutil_get_origin_path_type(strPath1);
    if(ORIGIN_PATH_USER==nPathType)
        printf("The path %s has path type ORIGIN_PATH_USER\n", strPath1);
    
    nPathType = okutil_get_origin_path_type(strPath2);
    if(ORIGIN_PATH_SYSTEM==nPathType)
        printf("The path %s has path type ORIGIN_PATH_SYSTEM\n", strPath2);

    // Note: If User path and system path are the same (i.e. okutil_get_origin_path(ORIGIN_PATH_USER) 
    // and okutil_get_origin_path(ORIGIN_PATH_SYSTEM) are equal), then
    // get_origin_path_type(strPath); returns ORIGIN_PATH_USER and
    // get_origin_path_type(strPath, FALSE); returns ORIGIN_PATH_SYSTEM    
}
