How can we get the current working directory path ?

[pratik041]

I have tried
@QDir::currentpath()@
but here i am getting the path of current application directory. I want to get path of current working project.

Please define "current working project", I don't know what you mean.

Suppose the project i am currently running under Qt is "mainwindow". The mainwindow project is present in path "C:/Documents and setting/ Desktop / mainwindow". So i want to get this path.While i am using QDir::currentpath() i am getting "C:/Documents and setting/ Desktop /mainwindow/mainwindow.app/Contents/MacOS" as current path in MAC for that project. which is actually the application path not the current project path. So how could i get the only project path?

I don't think this is possible without passing any additional information, as the resulting binary has no information about the origin project structure.
@
// .pro

DEFINES += PROJECT_PATH="\"$$PWD\""
DEFINES += BUILD_PATH="\"$$OUT_PWD\""

// .cpp

QString projectPath(PROJECT_PATH);
QString buildPath(BUILD_PATH);

Note that this is then hard coded into your binairy at compile time. Not sure if that is what you expect when you distribute your application...
