In the figure the two indicators ('appended path 1' & 'appended path 2') will have same value.

Now my query:

Is the 'Alternative' method Windows specific?

Yes, the second method is windows only, however you can change the string constant to a path constant with the same text and the delimiter will change automaticallyh on Linux/Mac.

 

Alternatively you can use the OpenG version of Current VIs path, which encapsulates the issue:

Hi, 

I have a problem with an append path from the "build path" function.

Built the path, it enter in "list folder" function but does not pass through the tunnel of the for loop.

Instead, if I wire a path controll to the "list folder", the path pass through the tunnel and the vi run as it should.

I attach the image of my VI so you understand better.

Please... Help me!

Are you getting an error?  What is the Appended Path indicator?  What base path are you passing into the Build Path?
