How do I use relative paths in Taleo Connect Client?

Question

Is it possible to use relative paths in a configuration file for Taleo Connect Client?

For example, let's say I have a TCC export script saved as C:\foo\test_sq.xml.

C:\
  foo\
    test_cfg.xml
    test_sq.xml

Later on, if I rename my folder to C:\bar, I'll need to manually change the script path in my config file from C:\foo\test_sq.xml to C:\bar\test_sq.xml.

Can I use a relative path instead, like ..\test_sq.xml?

You could use the built-in variable [CFGFOLDER] in your configuration file. For example, if your export script is in the same folder as the configuration file, you could do: [CFGFOLDER]/test_sq.xml

If you move your configuration file or change the folder name, the export process will still work if the configuration file and the export script are in the same folder.
