Thanks for the tip!
However, it's a bit strange because it only accepts paths with double
back slashes, instead of the forward slashes required for declaring
the template path for example.
import sys
sys.path.append('E:\\workspace\\myproject\\trunk\\apps')
works....
but:
import sys
sys.path.append('E:/workspace/myproject/trunk/apps')
doesn't work....
Is there a way around that? As I'm storing the absolute path of my
project in a constant variable (with forward slashes), I'd like to do
something like this:
ABSOLUTE_PROJECT_PATH = 'E:/workspace/myproject/trunk/
sys.append(ABSOLUTE_PROJECT_PATH + 'apps/')
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
ABSOLUTE_PROJECT_PATH + 'templates/',
)
PS: As you may have guessed, I'm running under Windows.
