Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

Reviewing the Windows platform installation directory structure

The OpenEdge installation PATH contains configuration files and several subdirectories. The installation PATH directory contains the OpenEdge executables, several procedure (.p) files, and other related files and subdirectories. The default installation PATH is C:\Progress\OpenEdge.

The installation PATH that you choose is referred to as DLC; for the default OpenEdge installation PATH, DLC is C:\Progress\OpenEdge. During installation, the DLC variable (%DLC%) is automatically set to your OpenEdge installation PATH.

Note that the DLC variable is set in the various command scripts and in the registry; the variable is not set at the system level.

Table 3–6 describes a directory tree of the OpenEdge subdirectories.
