Can you try this on win2000? Create test.bat: @echo off echo ~dps0: %~dps0 echo ~dp0: %~dp0 echo ~s0: %~s0 echo ~0: %~0
echo ~dps0\..: %~dps0\.. echo ~dps0..: %~dps0.. Then run: "cmd /C test.bat" I get... ~dps0: c:\home\Brett\ ~dp0: c:\home\Brett\ ~s0: c:\home\Brett\test.bat ~0: test.bat ~dps0\..: c:\home\Brett\\.. ~dps0..: c:\home\Brett\.. So it looks correct, though we could stand to drop the trailing \ as it seems to incorporate that already. Perhaps your M2_HOME is set differently outside of the batch file? - Brett On 4/17/05, baleineca <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm no batch file expert either and I thought it's was strange, but > here's what happens with the original line `if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" SET > M2_HOME=%~dps0\..`: > > M2_HOME = C:\PROGRA~1\MAVEN-~1.0-A\bin\m2.bat\.. > > which points to bin. > > I also thought it was supposed to return the directory, but it's > returning the file (this is happening on win2000, I've seen batch > commands behave differently on various win versions, so maybe it's > correct on winXP?) > > Hence my correction to go up one more from bin... > > > Brett Porter wrote: > > Hi, > > > > On 4/17/05, baleineca <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >>Change line 86 from: > >>if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" SET M2_HOME=%~dps0\.. > >> > >>to > >> > >>if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" SET M2_HOME=%~dps0\..\\.. > >> > >>(need double \\ to escape) > > > > > > Can you explain this to me?
