how to build a binary program that load relative path at linux? - shouhuanxiaoji - 01-21-2016

Hello,friends!
I want to compile the dolphin-emu to a binary program that load relative paths eg datadir..

I download sources package from stable branch in github and use c++-4.9 at Ubuntu 14.04 amd64.

If I use below command:
Code:
cmake
make
make install
or
Code:
cmake -D datadir=/home/xiaoji/dolphin
the path of datadir will be absolute.So after I move the whole path to another path,the program will be error: some path or some files is missing.

I want to know how to modify the cmakefile.txt? or add some parameter when use cmake command?
Thanks very much!

You will need to use the master branch. The stable branch is generally not recommended, because it's out of date.

I have build the relocatable version.
Meanwhile I have another question.How to load the locale path?
The language UI is still English.
how to config to load other language?
I mean that after modify the language menu in dolphin-emu's opthin-preference-Interface-Language,it has not been effective.I think it cant find the locale path.
thanks!
