How to get the application's path in a .NET console application?

You can get the application's path in a .NET console application using the System.Reflection.Assembly class.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to get the application's path in a console application:

csharp
using System;
using System.Reflection;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string path = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
        Console.WriteLine("Application path: " + path);
    }
}

The Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location method returns the full path of the currently executing assembly, which in this case is the console application. This path includes the file name of the application, so you may need to extract the directory portion of the path if you need to work with the application directory.

Note that the Location property returns the path in which the assembly file is located. If the application is run from a shortcut or symbolic link, this may not be the same as the actual working directory of the application. In such cases, you may want to use the Environment.CurrentDirectory property to get the current working directory of the application.
