Hi,

I start an interactive console for a currently edited file.

For some reason working directory isn't set to the directory the file is located
in.
It is set to Eclipse's installation directory:

>>> os.system("pwd")
/cygdrive/p/dev/eclipse3.5

and this is also immune to the following:

  os.system("cd /path/to/the/right/directory")

I've walked to the property entries that I've found somewhat relevant:
Project-->Settings-->"Run/Debug Settings" --> "myproject mymodule.py" -->"Edit"
-->"Arguments"-->"Working directory" --> "Other": ${workspace_loc:myproject/src}

This setting I find OK. Why then the current dir isn't ${workspace_loc:myproject/src}
?

How could I fix it?

regards
Valery

Hi,

That's correct, right now it only gets the info for the pythonpath for the current
editor, and not the working dir.

Now, to change the current dir, if you use os.chdir(path) (instead of going
for shell commands -- which won't affect the current shell, only the shell you
spawned) it should work. Also, use the python api to get the dir too
(os.getcwd()).

Cheers,

Fabio
