toppath

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 909 bytes --]

Hello,

there was a discussion about 'toppath' or 'pathrelativetome'.

Is 'toppath:' prefix working?

Or what other way is to refer to the path of the current file (i.e. the file I'm referring from)?

The following code doesn't work - "t-Hello.mkiv" is not found although it's located in the same directory as "t-TopPath.mkiv"; the "t-TopPath.mkiv" is compiled from ONE LEVEL UP.

So e.g. let's have:

c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-TopPath.mkiv
c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-Hello.mkiv

and let's switch to current (working) directory to:

c:\Lukas\ConTeXt

and call:

context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv

In this situation compilation fails.

How to make it work?

TIA.

Best regards,

Lukas

... I'd need to refer to a file from within a file, not in via '--path' option...

My case is more complicated - a file is included from more other files in various directory levels.

BTW: I was also thinking about \processedfile (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/processedfile) and about splitting it (taking the part up to the last / or \) but \processedfile gives nothing - try:

----
\enabletrackers[resolvers]

\starttext
   T

   \processedfile

   %\input toppath:/t-Hello.mkiv
\stoptext
----

... My observation so far:

'toppath' works with \component, so if one needs to include a file, it's better to include it via:

\component file.tex

where 'topttath' works as well:

\component toppath:/path-relative-to-me/file.tex

whilst

\input path-relative-to-me/file.tex

works "traditionally", so path is always relative to the directory the compilation is launched from.

Best regards,

Lukas

Hello!

> Is 'toppath:' prefix working?

I use it only with \component, \environment, \product, \project. It
works even if I do like this:

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ context ../src/products/assorted.tex


> context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv

It seems your observations in an e-mail below are right. Prefixes do
not seem to work with \input. I don't know if prefixes are supposed to
work or not with \input... but this issue is not related to toppath.


Cheers,
André Caldas.

I do this with \component:

input is rather low level (we have \component, processfile, readfile etc 
instead)
