include.__FILE__ #21

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
In the include() impl we could do something conceptually like:

var oldFile = include.__FILE__;
var name = file-we-are-about-to-include;
jsIncludeFunctionObject.__FILE__ = name;
includePrivateImpl( name ); // inside the file, access include.__FILE__
include.__FILE__ = oldFile;

That would of course only work properly only if the code accessing 
include.__FILE__ is executed during the execution of include(), as opposed 
to being tucked away in a function which is not called during the include() 
phase.

The intent is to give include()d scripts a way to include other scripts 
without having to fuss with paths.

include() should also arguably chdir() to the file's directory before 
inclusion (which makes most uses of __FILE__ obsolute. It doesn't currently 
do that only because i never wanted to write the path-parsing code (and 
test it thoroughly and hope it works on other platforms).
