Installing the SDK: 2.3 Installation and Setup: Environment Configuration

Up: GEOS SDK TechDocs | Up | Prev: 2.2 NT Configuration | Next: 2.4 Registry Configuration

The compiling and linking tools use the following environment variables to find executables and include files. These variables are set from the system module of the control panel, not an autoexec file.

setup sets these environment variables for you; they are included here for reference only.

ROOT_DIR
The root of the SDK installation, typically C:\PCGEOS (local development) or S:\PCGEOS (network development, substituting your particular network drive for S: ).
GOC_COMPILER_DIR
The root of the compiler directory, such as C:\BC45.
PATH
Your PATH must include entries for the bin\ directories of the Borland C++ compiler, PCGEOS, and your copy of perl. (More information on Borland C++ and perl is found in Compiling GEOS Applications .)
CCOM
Alternate compilation command for pmake . This must be set to @dosfront bcc for versions of the Borland compiler prior to 5.0.
