Hi Andrea,
"cd /d xxx" is change directory and drive
"cd xxx" is change dir on current drive.
However I would use pushd instead of cd, it has the benefit of working
with UNC paths as well (by automatically mapping to a free drive letter).
more info http://ss64.com/nt/pushd.html
If for some reason you need the drive/path of the batch file starting
udig use %0, as follows:
%~nx0 - the actual name of the batch file, regardless of calling
method (some-batch.bat)
%~dp0 - drive and path to the script (d:\scripts)
%~dpnx0 - is the fully qualified path name of the script
(d:\scripts\some-batch.bat)
from
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/357315/get-list-of-passed-arguments-in-windows-batch-script-bat/382312#382312
This is how the %OSGEO4W_ROOT% variable is set (see osgeo4w.bat).

Ok, I already have a problem with this.
It doesn't work if the folder from which the application is launched
is different from C: (a user reported it).
In that case the changedir command won't end into the right folder.
So the idea would be to change it to:
c:
cd "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\udig-dev"
@start /B "BeeGIS" "udig_internal.exe" --launcher.ini beegis.ini %*
But in that case if someone installs on a disk different from c:, that
would not work also.
Is there a variable that tells me the disk in which the installation occurred?
So that I could do:
%DISK%:
cd "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\udig-dev"
@start /B "BeeGIS" "udig_internal.exe" --launcher.ini beegis.ini %*
Any other idea?
Thanks,
Andrea

Hi, for technical reasons I need to cd into the apps folder before
exeecuting the application.
I changed the startup script to do so as:
cd "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\udig-dev"
@start /B "BeeGIS" "udig_internal.exe" --launcher.ini beegis.ini %*
it works. Just wondering if there is a more "windows" way to execute
an application from within a path.
Thanks,
Andrea
