vfs question

[mirkril]

I'm trying to load an image using the real path and filename of the file.
I'm using wxFileDialog to get the filename and path, I'm using
iLoader::LoadImage to load the image. The error I'm getting is
the file does not exist on VFS. I looked at viewmesh's source code
to get the basic outline of code.

Here's is the code I'm using:

wxFileDialog dialog(this, caption, default_dir, default_filename, wildcard, wxOPEN | wxFILE_MUST_EXIST);
if(dialog.ShowModal() == wxID_OK)
{
vfs->Mount("/tmp/avocado", dialog.GetDirectory().c_str());
vfs->ChDir("/tmp/avocado");
vfs->PushDir();

csRef<iImage> hm_img = loader->LoadImage(dialog.GetFilename().c_str(), CS_IMGFMT_TRUECOLOR);
if(hm_img == 0)
{
// error handling
}

// do stuff with image

vfs->PopDir();
hm_img = 0;

}

CS version: svn as of aug 25, 2006

Thanks for any help,

I don't know if that's all, but try calling PushDir() before ChDir().

Good luck!

Yup, that's a bug. Thanks for pointing it out.

I solved the original problem. I needed to end both the vfs path and the real path
with a file path separator, and the directory that wxFileDialog returns does not end with
a file path separator.
