I'm not sure what or why we are arguing anymore. You WILL need to write
code such as:
if ( $PRODUCT_ON_WINDOWS) {
# Read the %Program Files% environment variable and use it
# Or read the %SCMBUG_HOME% environment variable and use it.
}
for every occurrence of an absolute path use. And you WILL need to setup
an environment variable or configuration file that tells you where the
absolute path of the installation is. Thus you WILL need to do something
dynamically during installation time. Thus you WILL need an installer
that does it for you.
