virtual STRING MgCoordinateSystemCatalog::GetDefaultUserDictionaryDir

(

)

[pure virtual]

Returns the default directory path where user defined coordinate system definitions can be found or can be written into, respectively. If set, this method returns the value of the MENTOR_USER_DICTIONARY_PATH environment variable. Returns 'CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA Geospatial Coordinate Systems' on Windows systems or an empty string on non-Windows systems, otherwise.

Remarks:

The directory returned by this function is not guaranteed to exist. If it does, however, and is writable, too, the value returned by this function will be used to initialize this catalog of definitions on the first initialization.
