Path FMakePath(path, type, [volume, directory, directory, ..., name,] NULL);
The brackets indicate that the volume, directory, and name parameters are optional.
Creates a new path. If path is NULL, this function allocates and returns a new path. Otherwise, path is set to the new path, and this function returns path. If an error occurs or path is not specified correctly, the function returns NULL.
When you finish using a path, dispose of it using FDestroyPath.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| path | Path | Parameter in which FMakePath returns the new path if path is not NULL. |
| type | int32 | Type of path you want to create. If fAbsPath, the new path is absolute. If fRelPath, the new path is relative. |
| volume | PStr | (Optional) Pascal string containing a legal volume name. An empty string indicates to go up a level in the path hierarchy. Use this parameter only for absolute paths on Mac OS X or Windows. |
