Get file path of script being executed

ruby-talk
1

Hi all,
I have some directories in my project like:
+ communications
+ model
+ database
+ database/sqlite
+ http

Every directory contains scripts, more specifically classes, that are
called from a main script Portal.rb located in the base directory. How
could those scripts get in its own code its complete path? I try some
solutions from Internet but I just get the path to Portal.rb

Thanks,
Ubaldo

Check the __FILE__ variable in each one.

-- fxn

Check the __FILE__ variable in each one.

actual_folder = File.basedir(__FILE__.gsub(/\\/, '/')

Or something like this...
