Is it possible to determine the location of a r2build script from within the script?

Question

My project structure looks like this

<base_dir>\build\release.r2p
<base_dir>\build\thirdparty\...
<base_dir>\src\...
<basd_dir>\release\...

And my build script does stuff like:

• delete <base_dir>\release
• copy <base_dir>\build\thirdparty to <base_dir>\release
• compile code and output to <base_dir>\release

I need to change the location of <base_dir> occasionally and I would like the r2b script to just work when I do this. Right now I have to go in and manually update <base_dir> when it changes.

Is it possible to reference files relative to the r2p file location? This would allow me to do something like:

• delete <r2p_script_dir>\..\release
• copy <r2p_script_dir>\..\build\thirdparty to <r2p_script_dir>\..\release
• compile code and output to <r2p_script_dir>\..\release

Answer 1

so far there is no buildin variable support that. i will consider it in 3.0 to support more buildin variables.
