Example: creating a new path variable

You may have an attached directory that is located outside your project directory. This directory is attached to your project, and the path to this directory is included in the .iml file of your project. However, this path should not be absolute, because the location of this directory may be different on other computers. In this case, you can create the PATH_TO_ATT_DIR variable:

  1. Press CtrlAlt0S to open settings and then select Appearance & Behavior | Path Variables.

  2. Click the Add button.

  3. In the Add Variable dialog, type the PATH_TO_ATT_DIR variable, and its value that points to the directory location on your disk.

  4. Share the .iml file through your version control system.

  5. After your teammates update their projects from VCS, they will change the PATH_TO_ATT_DIR variable value so that it points to the library location on their computers.
