Thanks

  Click "Project > Macros" to view the defined macros and their values.

  They are all read-only system macros defined by CrossStudio apart from $(ProjectDir) which is defined by setting the "Build Options > Project Directory" project property.

  Sorry, maybe I am too stupid. I cannot find the place where to change the $(ProjectDir) for an existing project.

  Choosing Project -> Properties and clicking onto the project name on the left side openes the Build Options table. There is no Project Directory entree.

  Hi Markus,

  It looks like things have changed a bit since I wrote that post - "ProjectDir" is a read-only project macro, you can view the value by right clicking on the project in the project explorer and selecting "Macros" in the "View" drop-down. As I understand it, the value is set when you create a project however you can modify it by editing the solution as a text file and adding/modifying the project_directory attribute in the common configuration of the project node, for example:

    <project Name="example">
      <configuration Name="Common" project_directory="MyDir"  ...
  
  

  Regards,

  Jon
