Setting UNIX Platform Environment Variables

Prior to attempting to build a user-written proxy application (targeting Tuxedo servers) on a UNIX platform ensure the follow environment variables include paths to the CA Gen and Tuxedo installation directories as specified.

• The TUXDIR environment variable should be set to point to the Tuxedo install area. For example:

  set TUXDIR=/opt/oracle/tuxedo
  

• Add to the PATH variable:

  The CA Gen bin directory

  export PATH=$PATH:$IEFH/bin
  

  The Tuxedo installed product bin directory

  export PATH=$PATH:$TUXDIR/bin
  

• Add the CA Gen and Tuxedo product lib directories to one of the following library paths depending on the type of UNIX system:
  • HPUX-SHLIB_PATH

    export SHLIB_PATH=$SHLIB_PATH:$IEFH/lib:$TUXDIR/lib
    

  • AIX-LIBPATH

    export LIBPATH=$LIBPATH:$IEFH/lib:$TUXDIR/lib
    

  • Solaris-LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$IEFH/lib:$TUXDIR/lib
    

• Set the VIEWDIR32 variable which contains a colon-separated list of directories that are searched for .V VIEW32 files, respectively. For example:

  export VIEWDIR32=c:/proxy/sample/bin
  

• Set the VIEWFILES32 variable which contains a comma-separated list of allowable filenames for VIEW32 type records. For example:

  export VIEWFILES32=ProcStepName1.V,ProcStepName2.V
  

• If the user-written application is a Workstation client, set the WSNADDR variable which contains the hostname and port number used for connecting to the Tuxedo Workstation listener process that runs on the Target server platform. Applications written as native clients should not set this variable. For example:

  export  WSNADDR=//Server_hostname:7878
