Dirk12 Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 I have three files: start.au3 - I double click this file to start the program, it includes "lib/func.au3" lib/func.au3 - This file runs program.exe by calling Run("...") lib/bin/program.exe In order to execute program.exe from func.au3, I need the path to the executable. @ScriptDir returns the path to start.au3, but that's not what I want. I could use @ScriptDir & "/lib/bin/program.exe". However, the result depends on where the library was included from - but I want to be able to include the library from anywhere. Any ideas how I can get the path to the program?
water Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Welcome to Autoit and the forum! I don't think you can do what you want to do. All #include directives are processed by a pre-processor and the included file is inserted into the script. Then the whole script is passed to the interpreter. The interpreter doesn#t know which parts of the code have been included.
