[racket] Using define-runtime-path from *SL

[Nadeem Abdul Hamid]

How can I use define-runtime-path from *SL? I have a little teachpack that
exports the play-sound/play-background-sound functions so students can use
that in a game, but when you create an executable the sound files are not
packaged up. I figured that define-runtime-path needs to be used for that,
but exporting that from the teachpack gives an error when you try to use it
from a *SL program.

Yes, that does work, thanks.

I had put
(require racket/runtime-path)
(provide define-runtime-path)
into the teachpack file, but then in an ISL file, doing:
(require "the-lib.rkt")
(define-runtime-path y "hello world")
was giving:
?: literal data is not allowed;
no #%datum syntax transformer is bound in the transformer environment

Anyway, sorry about the noise.

You probably need to do this:

(require (for-syntax racket/base))
(provide (for-syntax #%datum))

in the teachpack.
