TimesTen Installation 75
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.

SYSTTCONNECTINI

sys.ttconnect.ini file
used by TimesTen Client
applications to define logical
server names.
