Comment #1 on issue 596 by pekka.klarck: `${CURDIR}` should be normal
variable
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=596
This happens because ${CURDIR} is replaced already at the test data
processing time. This is actually mentioned in the User Guide too:
http://robotframework.googlecode.com/svn/tags/robotframework-2.5/doc/userguide/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#variable-priorities-and-scopes
At the moment the curdir information isn't available all the time after
parsing to the current hacky approach is the only possibility. We are
planning to refactor variable and running related code in RF 2.6 anyway and
this potentially could be fixed at that time. Not that high priority,
though.
