location of suppressions filter file

I have started to create some suppression filters. My problem is that I am unsure how to make this file "portable".

On my dev machine, I can put in a full path to the file, and that is fine. However, on the CI server, the file will be in a different location (in addition, my dev machine is windows, the CI machine is Linux).

I am using eclipse (which may be clouding the issue here), and cannot work out how to setup a "relative path" to work.

For background, my heirarchy is along the lines of:

+ shared
- build/lib/checkstyle (the checkstyle xml & suppressions xml are held here also)
+ project
- src/java/com/...
- build.xml

my project/build.xml sets up the task with a reference to the shared/build/lib location and by itself works fine.

In my case the CI server also has different locations for these. So on my dev box, I can get from the project to checkstyle with a relative path of ../shared/build/lib; on the CUI server this relative path will not resolve to the same place).

Is there a way I can tell checkstyle to read the suppression file from the "same folder" as the checkstyle.xml file?
