3) What is my $HOME directory? The boost-sandbox\libs\typeof\doc?
Sorry, that was a Unix-ism. Just
set HOME=%HOMEPATH%
Actually, I think that this should be:
set HOME=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
and it will be in c:\Documents and Settings\<your-user-name>
For me, it's actually "d:\users\jni" - but normally it defaults to be the above. I usally change the user settings to have my home path somewhere else.
We ought to change it so it uses %HOMEPATH% instead of %HOME% by default, on Windows.
I have both HOME, HOMEPATH and HOMEDRIVE. Is HOME non-standard on Windows?
Yes. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
