Hello,

is there a way to get the location of the .dir-locals.el file inside the
.dir-locals.el file?

I try to do something like that

((c++-mode .
  ((compile-command (concat "cd " PATH-TO-DIR-LOCALS-EL " && make")))))

Basically I need something like default-directory but for the .dir-locals.el.

Regards,
Rüdiger

Thank you!

My .dir-locals.el now looks like that

((c++-mode . ((compile-command . 
  (concat "cd " (file-name-directory (locate-dominating-file buffer-file-name
                                                             ".dir-locals.el"))
          " && make")))))

a bit complicated but it works :-).
