</span>> I know people will disagree with me.You want more commonality across machines.I'm not sure that is worth it.In particular, debuggers always work more easily with full paths, for local private builds.Hopefully for debugging someone else's, some search pathwith "prefix replacement" is viable.But debugging your own build is more common and ideallyno special setting is needed to make that work.<br>

</span>I'd vote for full absolute path.<br>
