    I am looking at the documentation for the following method:

    QCoreApplication::applicationFilePath()

    The documentation says the following:
    http://doc.qt.digia.com/4.6/qcoreapplication.html#applicationFilePath

    "Returns the file path of the application executable."

    I am running my executable on ubuntu server. I use cmake to compile the executable and then I copy the executable in the ~/bin directory.

    What I don't understand is the path it refers to the directory where I ran the executable or the directory the executable is located in?
