PATH environment variable

TimesTen provides utilities for managing and debugging TimesTen
applications. To make these utilities readily available, include the

bin

directory found in install_dir in the PATH environment variable.

Note: install_dir is the directory where TimesTen is installed.

On Windows, the PATH environment variable must also contain the bin
directory of the ORACLE installation, if you are using the Cache
Connect to Oracle option.

ODBCINI environment variable

TimesTen applications use the

odbc.ini

file to define data sources and

their data store attributes. (For a description of data store attributes, see

Chapter 1, “Data Store Attributes

in the

Oracle TimesTen In-Memory

Database API Reference Guide

.) By default on UNIX platforms,

TimesTen first looks for the

.odbc.ini

file in the home directory of the

user running the TimesTen application. To override the name and
location of this file at run-time, set the $

ODBCINI

environment variable

to the pathname of a

.odbc.ini

file before launching the TimesTen

SYSODBCINI

Set to the location where the
sys.

odbc.ini

file used by

TimesTen system data stores
is to be found. This
environment variable should
be set in the start-up script.

file

used by TimesTen Client
applications to define logical
server names.
