[boost] boost::filesystem::path and '.'

[Stefan Seefeld]

hi there,

I'm trying to load a plugin from the same directory the application was
run from, so I'm doing the following:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  //...
  fs::path path(argv[0]);
  fs::path dir(path.branch_path());
  //...
but as soon as I start the application as './application', I get
an exception telling me that ...
boost::filesystem::path: invalid name "." in path: "./application"

What am I missing ?

Thanks,
                Stefan
