$SFXPATH$ not working anymore

Postby alibaba » Fri Jan 25, 2013 6:14 am

Hi,

I have discovered that the variable SFXPATH is not working as desired.

I have a single-exe build that is startet from c:\tmp\foo

$SFXPATH$ is c:\tmp
I would suggest that it holds the value c:\tmp\foo

I can reproduce it with more than one project and I am not modifiing the variable in script.

Regards.

Edit: for a network folder it is working well...

Dear Alibaba,

I suggest you to use the CMDLINE pre-defined variable at this time and manually parsing it.
I'm sure, you will be able to extract the path you need.
