I'm writing a measure to write CSV files to the OSM file folder and wondering if there's a way to find the location of the OSM file? Since OS uses the C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Temp folder during a sim, using the location of the measure.rb file returns the Temp folder instead of the location of the actual OSM file. For example, a new reporting measure uses the code below to read/write to the measure folder.

html_in_path = "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/resources/report.html.in"

I'm using the following syntax to move up folders where __FILE__ FILE is the measure.rb file. However, when I use puts to write the path it shows the Temp folder path.

html_root_dir = "#{File.expand_path("../../../", __FILE__)}"

I'm using the following syntax to move up folders where FILE is to write to a higher level of the measure.rb file. directory. However, when the path is written out it shows the Temp folder path.

html_root_dir = "#{File.expand_path("../../../", __FILE__)}"
puts html_root_dir

The main block of Ruby code from the measure will function as intended if executed from a terminal outside of a simulation.
