pub fn user_config_dir() -> PathBuf
Expand description
Returns a base directory in which to store user-specific application configuration information such as user preferences and settings.
On UNIX platforms this is determined using the mechanisms described
in the
XDG Base Directory Specification.
In this case the directory retrieved will be XDG_CONFIG_HOME
.
On Windows it follows XDG Base Directory Specification if XDG_CONFIG_HOME
is defined.
If XDG_CONFIG_HOME
is undefined, the folder to use for local (as opposed
to roaming) application data is used instead. See the
documentation for FOLDERID_LocalAppData
.
Note that in this case on Windows it will be the same
as what g_get_user_data_dir() returns.
The return value is cached and modifying it at runtime is not supported, as it’s not thread-safe to modify environment variables at runtime.
§Returns
a string owned by GLib that must not be modified or freed.
