Summary: Use Working Directory Setting in Interactions
Initial Comment:
Problem Story:
A student is examining an example program which uses
relative pathnames. Since the original program was written
assuming a command-line interaction, the paths are relative
to the source root of the program. When the user runs the
program in the interactions pane, the relatives paths are
resolved to the launch point of DrJava, and therefore the
program does not function correctly.
Solution Story:
When the user recognizes the problem, they open the
Preferences dialog and set the "Working Directory" option to
be the source root of the current program. All further
interactions make use of this working directory as the root
of relative paths. From this point forward, the program
functions correctly.
