Hi All!

I would like to get the path to an fpc package at compile time. I have a package which needs to load some .so files and I would like to store them in a location that will be consistent when I move the package from system to system. By getting the package path, I could store them in the package directory.

Is that possible?

I tried to use the __FILE__ macro like in C/C++ but the compiler doesn't seem to understand it.

Try something like

B5k5_Project := {$I %FILE% } ; (* Possibly used for .ini files etc. *)

http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/current/prog/progsu41.html#x48-470001.2.41

Thanks Mark,


Unfortunately, that directive only returns the file name itself, without the path. The documentation does not show any %xxx% symbol that returns the full file path, which is what I need. I will have to set an environment variable to do what I want, but that will leave me with just one more thing to forget when I port the package :-(.
