How to get the file path of current running skill script

fatcat1206

Hi All

Does anyone know how to get the the file path of current skill script.

My situation is that:

I'd like to use an icon for the label when creating the form.

As the code will be transferred to another location after the development.

Thus I'd like to use an relative path rather than an absolute path for the icon file.

This relative path should start with the file locations where this form has been made.

Thus I need to get the file path of current running skill script.

I have checked some skill reference, unfortunately I did not find the API I need.

Many thanks in advance.

Best Regards

Yi

  • Hi Andrew

    Thank you for your quick feedback.

    If I understand you correctly, I need to create a global variable to contain the file path, when the file is loaded.

    And then I pass its value to the form when it has been created afterwards.

    As the "piport" would point to CIW after file loading and Virtuoso has been started.

    And this why you mention "at the script level" in the begin.

    Is there any method to get the file name inside a function?

    Or simply after loading the file, all the functions are store in the memory, and there is no link to the original file.
