Is there any way for ctrulib to identify the name and full path of the currently running 3dsx? I want gridlauncher to be able to find its own executable on the SD card.

Is it not argv[0]? Dunno if entrypoints bother setting up an initial argc/argv, though.

I don't know if the entry points set it up, but the hb launcher's main() doesn't specify any parameters so I assume none are passed.

Yeah, take a look at the romfs code:

https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib/blob/master/libctru/source/romfs_dev.c#L119

For 3dsx romfs support, it has to open itself for reading (the romfs is embedded in the 3dsx), and that code handles it.
Thank you, I'll look at this :)

I just tried it, and yeah, themehax at least doesn't seem to push any arguments to regular argv. I guess it makes sense, since a boot.3dsx wouldn't really need arguments in the first place. Maybe Cruel's idea will work.

  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
