Expose open project path in ULP

Former Member

It would be useful if the path of the Open Project folder could be

determined from within a ULP.

 

Such a command should reveal the path of the Open project. If none is open

then it should indicate this by returning a null.

This would enable ULP code efficiencies when determining the folders used by

Eagle when a Project is open /or not..

 

Eagle already knows the path so I imagine that  it should not be a large

task to expose it via the User Language.

 

Thanks in anticipation

    You can do this with

     

      cfgget("EAGLE:Project.Dir")

     

    The cfgget() function was introduced in version 5.9.2.

    Nice one, I've never looked for it, and I must have missed it in the release

    text.

    Can you read DRC parameters with it?

    No, but this is something that might go into the next version

    (not making any promises, though).
