Simulator path name, how does it come up with the app name?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I print out the Temp directory the Corona Simulator is using, and it’s like this:

/Users/joe/Library/Application Support/Corona Simulator/MyAppABC-68B2F607AF320996E70DF7CF6101A6D2/tmp

How does it come up with the app name in the path, in this case, it’s “MyAppABC”

I can’t find where I set this in my source code…

And what if I want to change it?

I’m 99% sure it just uses the name of the folder that your main.lua file is in.

If you edit the folder name, you’ll see that it creates a new folder in your /Users/joe/Library/Application Support/Corona Simulator/ directory.

You can write 100%. App is at default named after folder name in which is main.lua

A-ha… I see, thanks a lot.
