root_path = configuration

Hi All,

I'm using Mckoi1.0.3 in embedded mode, and I'd like the data directory 
to be relative to the configuration file. But, when I create the 
database, it is the path is relative to the current working directory 
rather than relative to the location of the configuration file.  Here is 
what I do.

root_path = configuration
database_path = ./mckoidb

I do
File configfile = new File("/absolute/path/of/mckoidb.conf");
DefaultDBConfig config = MckoiUtils.loadConfig(configfile);

System.out.println(config.getValue("root_path");
prints configuration, as is should

But, then,

DBController control = DBController.getDefault();
control.createDatabase(config, "someuser", "somepassword").close();

creates the database in a directory named mckoidb that is relative to 
the current working directory rather than in a directory named mckoidb 
that is relative to the location of the configuration file.

Is this a bug?  I searched the mailing list archives for root_path but 
came up with way too many hits on just root or just path and gave up 
before finding an entry that really contained root_path.  Ditto for 
"root_path". Also not useful were root_path configuration.

Thanks,

Dick
