Yes, I could do that (I am using C++). But does this interacts with the OS then? If so, I do not like it. Imagine I have 2 independant programs that run on the same system and I want each of them to point to a different directory. There will be a conflict. This is why I would prefer to set the directory with a function so that it write to an internal variable of the library. I can probably implement that and propose a patch if you tell me where it is best to start.
