globalsourcepath

Display or edit the global source path map.

Syntax

globalsourcepath [= path mappings]

Discussion

The globalsourcepath control variable contains a list of source file path mappings.  These mappings translate source file paths embedded in program files to actual source file paths on the host computer.  The list is a comma-delimited string of the form:

     programFilePath1 = hostFilePath1; programFilePath2 = hostFilePath2; etc.

The path map can also be specified in the Program Load dialog (when the program is loaded), or from Options | Preferences | Program.

Note:  This control variable only has an effect when the "Share source file path map among all programs" option is enabled in Options | Preferences | Program.

Example 1

To set the source file path mappings:

Command input:

globalsourcepath = "C:\\AA\\WDB\\6.9.2\\wdb32=C:\\AA\WDB\\6.9.1"

Example 2

To display the current source file path mappings:

Command input:

globalsourcepath

Result:

C:\AA\WDB\6.9.2\wdb32=C:\AA\WDB\6.9.1
