save files dynamically via iw_ostream

Hi!

I want to save files dynamically via iw_ostream, so that my cleated files end up in the same directory that my generated file does. Is it possible? Does anyone know how?

It should be easy -

Just extract the file name of the generated file using iwpt_get_ofile_name.
Then set the path in your additional ostreams to include that path.

Here is a little code fragment that does the trick. The iwperl section gets the path relative the the workarea. Then with iwostream, workarea-relative pathing is used, together with the path fragment to output the file in the same directory.

<iw_perl><![CDATA[
my $ofile_dir = iwpt_get_ofile_name('dirname');
$ofile_dir =~ s|\\|/|g;
$ofile_dir =~ m|^.+/WORKAREA/[^/]+(/.+$)|;
my $work_rel_dir = $1;
]]></iw_perl>
<iw_ostream file="{iw_value name='$work_rel_dir'/}/fragment.html">
Blah blah
</iw_ostream>
