Block Mode and Server Executable Locations

When a C block mode interactive application, one that requires using the AEFN as the interface, or a set of C Servers are built, the executables and the triggers library are copied to the \inqload subdirectory, and a local version of the AEENV file is updated within the models' source directory, matching the behavior on UNIX and Linux systems, and avoiding the trigger library collisions that occurred when a pre-existing trigger library was in the %IEFH%\inqload directory. Previously, because the file was not being overridden, it was out of sync with the executables.

When a C block mode command line application is built, the executables and the triggers library remain in the models' source directory and a local version of the AEENV file is updated in the models' source directory.

Separating the locations of the executables allows both block mode application styles to co-exist for one model.

To successfully invoke these executables and servers, you must properly set the AEPATH environment variable.
