| 27 | * \brief Absolute libexec path resolved in relative relation to the current shared object. |
| 28 | * |
| 29 | * This function helps locate the absolute libexec path relative to the caller's binary artifact. |
| 30 | * |
| 31 | * For example: |
| 32 | * \list |
| 33 | * \li Your source gets built with prefix /usr |
| 34 | * \li Your binary artifact's presumed absolute path will be /usr/lib/libfoobar.so |
| 35 | * \li You call KLibexec::path("libexec/foobar") |
| 36 | * \endlist |
| 37 | * |
| 38 | * Scenario 1: The binaries are actually installed in /usr: |
| 39 | * \list |
| 40 | * \li The function's output is /usr/lib/libexec/foobar/ (resolved relatively from /usr/lib/libfoobar.so) |
| 41 | * \endlist |
| 42 | * |
| 43 | * Scenario 2: The same binaries are installed in /opt (or moved there): |
| 44 | * \list |
| 45 | * \li The function's output is /opt/lib/libexec/foobar/ (resolved relatively from /opt/lib/libfoobar.so) |
| 46 | * \endlist |
| 47 | * |
| 48 | * \a relativePath relative element to append (e.g. "libexec/foobar" resulting in /usr/lib/libexec/foobar/ as output) |
| 49 | * when called with an empty string you effectively get the directory of your binary artifact. |
| 50 | * |
| 51 | * Returns the absolute libexec path or empty string if it cannot be resolved |
