GetModuleFileName() with console app?

[dc2000]

Hi everyone:


It seems to be very easy but somehow I'm stuck in the middle of it. The GetModuleFileName(hModule, pFileName, nSz) returns NULL if hModule refers to console app (and probably 16bit app too). There's absolutely no way around it as I need to get file path from the window handle.

Any suggestions?

Try some of the Console WINAPI functions. I am not quite familliar with them, so it might be up to you to determine what you need. Search for functions like AttachConsole, GetConsoleAlias, etc.

When you do it, do it right.

Hah, thanks dEVooXiAm. But still there are questions AttachConsole() just attaches a new console to GUI app and to use GetConsoleAlias() one needs to know console alias which I don't have. All I have available is hModule handle to the module and any other derivatives (window handle, class name, etc).

Any more ideas, guys?
