[LDTP-Dev] help me with initappmap !!!

[Nagappan]

Hi Harishankaran,
    Are you using latest LDTP ?

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/ldtp co ldtp

If latest one then you no need to use initappmap. At run time all the
object info are recognized. Its optional to use this function. I guess
in your case LDTP engine has been started in a different directory. When
you do initappmap with current working directory the LDTP engine could
not find, as the CWD of LDTP engine will be pointing to a different
directory. I would recommend to use the absolute path as an argument to
initappmap.

In script you can have something like this:

import os
initappmap (os.getcwdu () + '/gnome-dictionary.map')

Thanks
Nagappan
