Code: Select all
core::stringc aaa = device->getFileSystem()->getWorkingDirectory();
printf("%s \n",aaa.c_str());
aaa+="\\media\\tree";
device->getFileSystem()->setWorkingDirectory(aaa.c_str());
aaa = device->getFileSystem()->getWorkingDirectory();
printf("%s \n",aaa.c_str());

I'm guessing it doesn't change for some reason, though stating that would have been nice

First, the method is changeWorkingDirectoryTo(), not setWorkingDirectory(), at least it has been since 1.4.2.
Second, changeWorkingDirectoryTo() returns a bool result. If you pass it an invalid path name, then it will fail, and it will tell you that it has failed.

works fine for me with Irrlicht v1.4.2, after changing to changeWorkingDirectoryTo() of course...
also the path must exist, otherwise you'll never be able to change to this directory, of course...
