From 2b509383ccb22a1a4258e1d56710cbb998d6c6af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nat Goodspeed Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2011 22:32:06 -0400 Subject: Use C++ __FILE__ rather than Python __file__ to find indra work area. In this case, the Python code in question is being written from a C++ string literal to a temp script file in a platform-dependent temp directory -- so the Python __file__ value tells you nothing about the location of the repository checkout. Embedding __FILE__ from the containing C++ source file works better. --- indra/llcommon/tests/llsdserialize_test.cpp | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'indra/llcommon') diff --git a/indra/llcommon/tests/llsdserialize_test.cpp b/indra/llcommon/tests/llsdserialize_test.cpp index a54d861680..c65a1d3ca0 100644 --- a/indra/llcommon/tests/llsdserialize_test.cpp +++ b/indra/llcommon/tests/llsdserialize_test.cpp @@ -1674,10 +1674,16 @@ namespace tut struct TestPythonCompatible { TestPythonCompatible(): + // Note the peculiar insertion of __FILE__ into this string. + // Normally I like to make a Python script navigate relative to + // its own placement in the repo directory tree (__file__) -- but + // in this case, the script is being written into a platform- + // dependent temp directory!
