Special Options

PROJECT_ROOT_PATH - The project root path is used, only, when creating new projects. The option is usually set in the environment to control the default prefix for all projects. When using relative path's in the database projects, it is possible to move them around.

Samples typically refer to fixed paths, which contain a drive letter, e.g. E:\Sample. This may cause trouble when changing the project root, in which case using relative positions is a better approach. When using relative project paths as projects/Sample, the project root path has to be set in the PROJECT_ROOT_PATH option in the environment or ini-file.

PROJECT_SOURCE_ROOT_PATH

The project source root path is used to externally set a root to the project. It is currently used for the Unix environment to prefix each file the ODE generates with a specific path.

The combination of these options is used in the following way:

${PROJECT_SOURCE_ROOT_PATH}/${ode:currentProject:prj_hierarchy_path}/
