How to let cscope use absolute path in cscope.out file?

Question

Everytime after load a cscope.out in Vim, I need to change Vim\'s \"pwd\" to the same directory as cscope.out file is under, which might be due to that cscope use relative path

@Aaron H. is right.

For my configuration I used the cscope_maps.vim plugin and modified the following lines:

  40     " add any cscope database in current directory
  41     if filereadable("/usr/project/cscope.out")
  42         cs add /usr/project/cscope.out /usr/project
  43     " else add the database pointed to by environment variable 
  44     elseif $CSCOPE_DB != ""
  45         cs add $CSCOPE_DB
  46     endif

Where "/usr/project" is the location of the cscope.out file and the absolute path I want to use.
