Re: WDIR in Expedition

Ricky,

From the Mentor pages:

Setting WDIR

WDIR (Working DIRectory) is used to store project settings and data and is used in conjunction with $SDD_HOME/standard to retain application configuration and project data.

This variable can be edited by the user.

On Windows, the Configurator prompts for the setting for WDIR.

On UNIX/Linux:

Bourne shell:

% WDIR=<path to wdir>

% export WDIR

C-Shell:

% setenv WDIR <path to wdir>



The following products require the WDIR environment variable to point to a writeable location in addition to the standard directory from which it reads in the installed tree on all platforms.

* Constraint Editing System (CES)

* Remote Server Configuration Manager

* DxDesigner

* ICX Pro Explorer

* Quiet Expert

If WDIR is not set, $HOME/wdir is created and used as the writeable location.
