To clarify the path being specified take the following example. If I give as the config list the path ./conf/nimas.cfg then will liblouis look for tables in ./conf/ or ./conf/liblouis/tables and will liblouisutdml look for semantic action files in ./conf or ./conf/liblouisutdml/lbu_files?
If I call setDataPath then it is the latter (IE. ./conf/liblouis/tables and ./conf/liblouisutdml/lbu_files).

I'm pretty sure that on Linux if the original configuration fille has a path that path is included in the search for tables, semantic-action files and other configuration files. Of course the liblouis tables and liblouisutdml lbu_files directories are also searched. John On Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at 03:14:03PM +0100, Michael Whapples wrote:On 10/07/2014 15:08, John J.

When you say the table is searched for on the path one gives when specifying the configuration file, do you mean actually located in the same directory next to the configuration file or do you mean it still uses the liblouis/tables and liblouisutdml/lbu_files directory trees?I think a little code will be needed to make path specifications platform-independent. There is a variable called ud->file_sep that contains the separator character for the platform. The module paths.c is the place to start.

If you give just the file name with no path component (eg. en-us-g2.ctb) then it appears liblouisutdml looks in the default data path. If giving a path component then you have the platform specific path separators. So my original question of how to give it in a platform independent manner? Also how can I specify the file will be found in the same directory as the configuration file I am referencing it from?
