Relative paths in project file?

[oliverb]

Apologies in advance if you actually have implemented this...

As far as I can tell currently all paths in the project file are declared in full starting from the drive letter.

I would like to give the path relative to the location of the project file.

I would also like to have a meta-variable like %defs%, %uses% that gives the path to the library folder.

that way my current project:

Code: Select all

D:\Mikroelektronika\mikroBasic PRO for PIC\defs\
D:\Mikroelektronika\mikroBasic PRO for PIC\Uses\P16\
\\Server\design\Pic Experimental\enc7seg\

would become

Code: Select all

%defs%\
%Uses%\P16\
.\

The first version is dependant on install locations.
The second version is "portable". Its also shorter.

There may also be a similar issue where you can add a file to a project from a folder other than the project folder, and then you are unable to remove it.
