Hi Jacek,

Thanks for the feedback.

My concern with calling WriteFile directly is that I would have to duplicate the string literals (once for the arg and once for calling strlen()). That would be ok for simple one-word strings, but these include whitespace and escape characters, and could easily get out of sync without being visually obvious.

Here’s what the spec says:
"The "library_path" specifies either a filename, a relative pathname, or a full pathname to an ICD shared library file. If "library_path" specifies a relative pathname, it is relative to the path of the JSON manifest file. If "library_path" specifies a filename, the library must live in the system's shared object search path."

NVIDIA uses a relative path on Windows, and just a filename on Linux. I think you’re right that a full path would be best, I’ll add that with GetModuleFileName().

Yes you’re right, I’ll fix all these.

Thanks,
