Environment Variables

The ADF installation procedure updates all necessary environment variables automatically. The following variables are affected:

• ADFHOME, ADFBIN, ADFRESOURCES are given new values pointing to the appropriate folders
  in the ADF folder
• It is important to ensure that ADF programs find proper files during execution.
  To this end, the PATH environment variable is updated by adding the following folders folders:
• ADF program folder (C:\ADF2007.01\bin by default).
  For correct functioning of ADF it is important to make sure that previous versions
  of ADF do not appear in the PATH variable before this folder.
• Tcl shell and Tcl/Tk dynamic libraries (DLL's) folder (C:\ADF2007.01\bin\TclTk\bin).
• Msys, MinGW mini-system, binary files folder (C:\ADF2007.01\msys\bin).
• Putty binary files folder (C:\ADF2007.01\bin\Putty).
• For HP-MPI version only, HP-MPI's bin folder (C:\ADF2007.01\bin\hpmpi\bin).
• SCM_STRUCTURES is set by default to C:\ADF_DATA\Structures.
  You can save your own .adf files in this folder and they will be added to the ADFinput's Structure Tool.
• SCM_TPLDIR is set by default to C:\ADF_DATA\Templates.
  You can create your own presets in ADFinput and save them there.

ADF Setup modifies the system portion of the PATH variable. This means that you must have Administrator privileges to install ADF correctly.
