      issue

      it's not possible to create documentation in current working directory by providing "./test" or"test" values to ---outputdir argument.

      In current implementation, qdoc uses value of --output dir to generate documentation inside directory where qdocconf file is located.  

       

      what's expected

      it is expected that usage of "–outputdir ./test" will generate documentation is folder test in the current working directory.

       

      steps to reproduce

      1. download and unzip files attached 
      2. invoke following command  qdoc data/conf/qdoc.conf --outputdir ./documentation
