<![CDATA[Portable path separator in pro-files?]]>Hi,

is there a portable way to separate directories in pro-files in function system()? Currently on Windows I have to write:
@
system(cd tests\test1)
@

while on Linux I have to write:

@
system(cd test/test1)
@

I know there is variable QMAKE_DIR_SEP, but it is undocumented. By the way, where this variable is defined?

Thank you!

@
TARGET_DIR = test/test1
win32:TARGET_DIR = $$replace(TARGET_DIR, /, \)
@

If you are using Qt 5 then you have system_path

@system(cd $$system_path(test/test1))@

Or something similar

Hope it helps
