I need to locate the directory of current executable file, but I can't find how to do that in Phobos. I tried core.runtime.Runtime.args[0], but failed. Is there a standard method of Phobos to do that? I only know the way of Windows (GetModuleFileName), but I think as a common task there should be a platform-independent way to get it in the standard library.

import std.stdio;
import std.file : thisExePath;
import std.path : dirName;

void main(string[] args)
{
        writeln(dirName(thisExePath()));
}
