Where does leiningen read profiles.clj from on Windows?

Closed this issue · 3 comments

Hi there
I am using lein (which I installed by hand, not using the Windows installer)
This is installed under c:\dev\lein
I tried creating a profiles.clj under c:\Users\xxxx\.lein
But this didn't seem to pick up the profiles.clj
Is there a way of asking lein where it is looking?
Thanks, Neil

lein.bat uses C:\Users\{username}\.lein (C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\.lein on Win XP) as directory for profiles.clj and the like, so it should be placed there.

Is there a self-installs directory in the .lein directory? If not, then lein uses a different directory.

small nitpick: it uses %USERPROFILE% which is per default set to the above path afaik. But it's still just the current contents of the environment variable.

Thanks guys. It turns out it is using c:/dev/lein/profiles.clj as opposed to any user profile based location.
