Retrieving Path Variable Values Follow
MPS let you define Path Variables under Preferences. Path variables can be used to avoid absolute paths. We would like to resolve the value of a path variable in one of our project programmatically from within an MPS behavior. Could anybody recommend a place to look where this is done in the MPS platform?
For instance, if I defined a.b under Preferences->Path Variables a.b=/a/B, how do I retrieve /a/b using the a.b key?
I know the build system resolves Path Variables values, but I have been unable to track down exactly where this is done. Thanks, Fabien

Please sign in to leave a comment.
PathMacros.getInstance().getValue("a.b")prettyPrint();or
MacrosFactory.getGlobal().expandPath("${a.b}")prettyPrint();MacrosFactory.getGlobal().expandPath("${a.b}") gives correct value inside MPS but gives just "{a.b}" while running my test from terminal using ant.
Can someone help me regarding this?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for pushing this old thread.
I have the same problem. How did you manage to fix this?
