Get the folder from which a script is running?

[lechristophe]

Hi,

Is there a way for an ImageJ javascript to report from which folder it
running (i.e. the path to the js file or to its parent folder)?

Thanks!

You can get the folder of a installed macro or script by looking up the command name in the list of menu commands. For example, I have a JavaScript named Split_Bayer.js in plugins/Tools and this JavaScript

   commands = Menus.getCommands();
   name = commands.get("Split Bayer");
   if (name==null) name="null";
   start = name.indexOf("\"");
   end = name.indexOf("/");
   print("folder="+name.substring(start+1,end));

returns

   folder=Tools

For some reason in linux, I get this error:
sun.org.mozilla.javascript.WrappedException: Wrapped
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
(<Unknown source>#6) in <Unknown source> at line number 6

but can get round to it by changing line 5 to:
end = name.indexOf(".");

Cheers
