Problem with QDir::cdUp()

[nuntawat]

Hello everyone. Now I want to access the parent directory by using cdUp(). For example, when the current directory is C:\SampleRoot\SampleFolder and I'd like to access C:\SampleRoot:

QDir tmpCurrDir = QDir::current();
tmpCurrDir.cdUp();
QString rootDir = tmpCurrDir.currentPath();

QDir tmpCurrDir = QDir::current();
tmpCurrDir.cdUp();
QString rootDir = tmpCurrDir.currentPath();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Even if there is a existed directory and cdUp() always return true, but when calling the currentPath() it will give C:\SampleRoot\SampleFolder not C:\SampleRoot. So what should I do?

Thanks a lot for everyone!

From the docs:

QString QDir::currentPath () [static]
Returns the absolute path of the application's current directory.

Use QDir:: path() instead

QString rootDir = tmpCurrDir.path();

QString rootDir = tmpCurrDir.path();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode
