QSYS use relative IP Search Path

I have some IP components located in my local directory structure. I can manually add a hard coded IP Search Path and everything works fine. I cannot figure out how to make this search path relative ...

Whoops. Nevermind, I think I found the answers:

1) If using the QSYS GUI: create the file *.ipx in the same directory as QSYS. Use the path relative to the *.qsys file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<library>

<path path="../ip_components/**/*" />

</library>

2) If using ip-generate, add the argument: --search-path=$qwork/../SourceCode/qsys/ip_components,$

the $qwork path was a TCL script variable. The path is relative to where you are calling ip-generate (relative to the *.qpf in my case).
