Shared Directory Path Conventions

The AKD PDMM and PCMM support access to a shared directory on a remote computer. To access files in a shared directory from the AKD PDMM orPCMM use '/mount/shared' at the beginning of the path, before the shared directory's relative path and file name:

'/mount/shared/directory/filename'

Valid Paths Notes
/mount/shared The path is not case sensitive, so /MOUNT/SHARED, MOUNT/SHARED/, etc. are also valid.
mount/shared
\mount\shared
mount\shared

Example 1: Opening the file example.txt from a shared directory on a remote computer.

fileID := F_AOPEN('/mount/shared/example.txt');

Example 2: Opening the file myfiles/example.txt from a shared directory on a remote computer.

fileID := F_AOPEN('/mount/shared/myfiles/example.txt');
