er... fromReferencetype

[Lindon]

do I just not understand how to use this call?

linkFile = FileSystem.fromReferenceString("LinkWindows", FileSystem.AppData);

'cause its telling me:

"AppData" is not a valid locationType

@Lindon Same question…

[Christoph Hart]

This method is for resolving stuff like this:

FileSystem.fromReferenceString("{PROJECT_FOLDER}Funky.wav", FileSystem.Samples);

and is limited to Samples and AudioFiles file types.

What Lindon wanted in his original post would be

FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.AppData).getRedirectedFolder();

@Christoph-Hart Thank you, and helps if we read the docs correctly. :)

@clevername27
yeah in another recent thread Dave and I discussed this again, and eventually Dave remembered this;

Console.print(FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.AppData).getRedirectedFolder().toString(0));
