  • whereami

    Locate the current running executable and the current running module/library on the file system 🔎 (by gpakosz)

  • Set up CLion so that it copies the input files to a folder relative to the executable file. However relative file paths in C++ are always relative to the current working directory, which is not necessarily the same directory as where the executable is. You have to use OS specific functions to get the path of the executable or use a wrapper library like whereami.
