I would like to get programmatically the directory path of my LabWindows™/CVI™ application is running.

In order to know the directory path of files or applications, you have two options:

Using CVI API by using the functions GetProjectDir or GetDir
Using Windows API by using the functions GetVolumePathName or GetVolumeInformation
