system and application folder paths - El Forum - 10-20-2009

Is there a way to access the $system_folder and $application_folder from within a controller in order to build path to a particular file?
ex.
Code:
$file_path = $system_folder.'/'.$application_folder.'/views/';system and application folder paths - El Forum - 10-20-2009

Have a look at the constants defined in index.php:
Code:
/*
|---------------------------------------------------------------
| DEFINE APPLICATION CONSTANTS
|---------------------------------------------------------------
|
| EXT - The file extension. Typically ".php"
| SELF - The name of THIS file (typically "index.php")
| FCPATH - The full server path to THIS file
| BASEPATH - The full server path to the "system" folder
| APPPATH - The full server path to the "application" folder

yeah that's what I did, thanks for the info. I added this to my config file so I could have a relative path.
Code:
$config['relative_path'] = str_replace($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'], '', APPPATH);
