MgErr FAddPath(basePath, relPath, newPath);

Purpose

Creates an absolute path by appending a relative path to an absolute path. You can pass the same path variable for the new path that you use for basePath or relPath. Therefore, you can call this function in the following three ways:

• err = FAddPath(basePath, relPath, newPath);
  /* the new path is returned in a third path variable */
• err = FAddPath(path, relPath, path);
  /* the new path writes over the old base path */
• err = FAddPath(basepath, path, path);
  /* the new path writes over the old relative path */

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
basePath	Path	Absolute path to which you want to append a relative path.
relPath	Path	Relative path you want to append to the existing base path.
newPath	Path	Path returned by FAddPath.

Return Value

MgErr, which can contain the following errors. If you receive errors from CIN functions, most error names correspond to LabVIEW error codes.

Value	Corresponding Error Code or Description
noErr	No error.
mgArgErr	1
mFullErr	2
