FolderItem.ShellPath Property

Syntax

ShellPath as String


Gets the shell path of the FolderItem. On Windows, this is the short path.

On Mac OS X and Linux, this is the POSIX path. On Mac OS 8-9, it is the same as the AbsolutePath. It is not always possible to get the ShellPath of a FolderItem, for example for a non-existent FolderItem on Windows. If REALbasic is unable to get the ShellPath, ShellPath will contain the AbsolutePath.
