Determine the location of a project's .sim directory via the Ocean API?

Question

Within a Petrel plugin, I wish to determine the location of the current project's .sim directory, if it has one. Is there an Ocean API call I can use to get this information?

Answer 1

You can get this directory from a simulation case object using the following method(s):

Case simCase = aSimulationCaseFromSomewhere;
string exportPath = EclipseFormatSimulator.GetArguments(simCase).CaseInfo.ExportPath;

Good luck!

Answer 2

Yes this mechanism will work independent of whether your Simulation.Case is from one of the WellKnown simulators (E100, E300, FrontSim) or a Plug-in simulator based on the EclipseFormatSimulator class.
