Q32991 _searchenv of File in Root Directory
C Compiler
5.00 5.10 | 5.10
MS-DOS | OS/2
Summary:
_searchenv will return an invalid pathname for a file in the
root directory when the current working directory is also the root
directory.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Versions 5.00 and
5.10 of the C compiler. We are researching this problem and will post
new information as it becomes available.
More Information:
The following program demonstrates this problem; it should be run in
the root directory of your boot disk:
#include <dos.h>
main ()
{
char path_buffer [40];
_searchenv ("autoexec.bat", "PATH", path_buffer);
printf ("path: %s\n", path_buffer);
}
The following is the output (note the extra backslash in the path
name):
path: C:\\autoexec.bat
