Autrijus,
Run 'man proc' for more info on the following...
At least on linux 2.2 and 2.4 machines the following works for
finding the fullpath to the exe:
/* Returns the full path to exe or NULL on failure */
char *findprog() {
char exelink[32]; /* Enough to hold fixed characters plus pid */
int mypid = getpid();
char *progexe = (char *)malloc(MAX_PATH_LEN+1);
int len;
/* Create full path to exe link in proc filesystem */
snprintf(31, exelink, "/proc/%d/exe", mypid);
/* Read the /proc/PID/exe link to get path to exe */
if( (len = readlink(exelink, progexe, (MAX_PATH_LEN)*sizeof(char))) < 0 ) {
/* readlink failed, try something else */
free(progexe);
progexe = NULL;
}
else
/* readlink succeeded, null terminate the value */
progexe[len] = '\0';
return progexe;
}
Best regards,
Alan
