When users designate a specific data directory and separate the executables from the data, it becomes unclear how to find the executables if they are not in the default locations.
I would like to find a reliable means of locating (on all supported platforms) the full path to the boinccmd executable from an application running in a slots directory. But I don't see any environment variables established at runtime that point back to the core client code path. Is there some reliable means of locating the proper path for boinccmd programmatically? ...I should be more specific. I want to determine the path from the shell of the client machine, not in an application that is compiled with the BOINC APIs. So all I'll really have available is environment variables, or files up in the data directory. But I don't see any identications in either of where to find boinccmd (for the cases where it is not at the base of the data directory). Running Microsoft's "System Idle Process" will never help cure cancer, AIDS nor Alzheimer's. But running rose...@home just might! http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/ _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
