/**
|
|
* \brief Get the user-and-app-specific path where files can be written.
|
|
*
|
|
* Get the "pref dir". This is meant to be where users can write personal
|
|
* files (preferences and save games, etc) that are specific to your
|
|
* application. This directory is unique per user, per application.
|
|
*
|
|
* This function will decide the appropriate location in the native filesystem,
|
|
* create the directory if necessary, and return a string of the absolute
|
|
* path to the directory in UTF-8 encoding.
|
|
*
|
|
* On Windows, the string might look like:
|
|
* "C:\\Users\\bob\\AppData\\Roaming\\My Company\\My Program Name\\"
|
|
*
|
|
* On Linux, the string might look like:
|
|
* "/home/bob/.local/share/My Program Name/"
|
|
*
|
|
* On Mac OS X, the string might look like:
|
|
* "/Users/bob/Library/Application Support/My Program Name/"
|
|
*
|
|
* (etc.)
|
|
*
|
|
* You specify the name of your organization (if it's not a real organization,
|
|
* your name or an Internet domain you own might do) and the name of your
|
|
* application. These should be untranslated proper names.
|
|
*
|
|
* Both the org and app strings may become part of a directory name, so
|
|
* please follow these rules:
|
|
*
|
|
* - Try to use the same org string (including case-sensitivity) for
|
|
* all your applications that use this function.
|
|
* - Always use a unique app string for each one, and make sure it never
|
|
* changes for an app once you've decided on it.
|
|
* - Unicode characters are legal, as long as it's UTF-8 encoded, but...
|
|
* - ...only use letters, numbers, and spaces. Avoid punctuation like
|
|
* "Game Name 2: Bad Guy's Revenge!" ... "Game Name 2" is sufficient.
|
|
*
|
|
* This returns an absolute path in UTF-8 encoding, and is guaranteed to
|
|
* end with a path separator ('\\' on Windows, '/' most other places).
|
|
*
|
|
* The pointer returned by this function is owned by you. Please call
|
|
* SDL_free() on the pointer when you are done with it, or it will be a
|
|
* memory leak. This is not necessarily a fast call, though, so you should
|
|
* call this once near startup and save the string if you need it.
|
|
*
|
|
* You should assume the path returned by this function is the only safe
|
|
* place to write files (and that SDL_GetBasePath(), while it might be
|
|
* writable, or even the parent of the returned path, aren't where you
|
|
* should be writing things).
|
|
*
|
|
* Some platforms can't determine the pref path, and on other
|
|
* platforms, this might be meaningless. In such cases, this function will
|
|
* return NULL.
|
|
*
|
|
* \param org The name of your organization.
|
|
* \param app The name of your application.
|
|
* \return UTF-8 string of user dir in platform-dependent notation. NULL
|
|
* if there's a problem (creating directory failed, etc).
