Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Relative Path to File with File Sink/Source

[Richard Bell]

Hmmm. That means I have to specify the directory users must start grc from to keep from erroring out?

You're probably not running the script from where the .py is, but from where GRC started. Relative paths are relative to that folder.
That means that if you run gnuradio-companion from your home directory (which is probably the default when you just open it from some menu), then paths are relative to /home/user1.

Easy question here. I'm trying to use a relative path with file sink/source. It errors out with "can't open file".

I'm assuming the path is relative to the location of the .grc file location.

If the location of the .grc file was: /home/user1/proj1/devel/myfile.grc

And a data file was here: /home/user1/proj1/dat/datafile.dat

Then the path I use in file source is: ../dat/datafile.dat

What do I need to change to make this work?

Thanks,

Rich
