darcyparker / GetThisCommandsDir.bat
Created March 28, 2013 21:41
Tools written in a scripting language like node.js, ruby, python, etc... often wrap the script in a batch file that uses %~dp0 to identify the root folder of the command being called. In most scenarios %~dp0 gives the expected result. But sometimes they give the wrong result and cause the tool/script to fail. For example, some applications (such…
@echo off
REM Using %~dp0 is common in batch files to identify the root folder of the batch file
REM But sometimes %~dp0 does not work as expected.
REM
REM This batch file illustrates where %~dp0 fails to return desired root folder where this
REM batch file is located.
REM
REM To setup the demonstration:
REM - save this batch file to a location such as d:\bin\GetThisCommandsDir
REM - Go to a different folder to execute the test cases
