On installation you should set up a registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\YourApplicationName
... and add the key ....
InstallationDirectory
... with the path where you installed the package.
As Example,
Name: HKLM\Software\YourApplicationName\InstallationDirectory
Type: REG_SZ
Data: "C:\Program Files\YourApplicationName"
Then you can use,
gchar* install_dir;
install_dir = g_win32_get_package_installation_directory
("YourApplicationName",
NULL);
chdir((const gchar*) install_dir);
g_free(install_dir);
Hope this helps.
