- The Path to ECAD resources specifies which folder is initially searched for EPLAN Electric P8 macros and template files.
Local paths, absolute local paths as well as relative paths are all valid:
Absolute paths are used as specified.
Relative paths consist of the specification for -Dcom.mind8.global.resourcePath in the initialization file (for example ec.ini) and this specification. If no path is specified for -Dcom.mind8.global.resourcePath in the initialization file, the path consists of the EEC installation folder and the relative path.
Specification in the initialization file: -Dcom.mind8.global.resourcePath=C:\Users\Public\EPLAN\EngineeringConfiguration\2_7_20180202-1530\resources
Specification of Path to ECAD macros = Tutorial\P8
Resulting path = C:\Users\Public\EPLAN\EngineeringConfiguration\2_7_20180202-1530\resources\Tutorial\P8
Specification in the initialization file: -Dcom.mind8.global.resourcePath=\\myShare\resources\
Specification of Path to ECAD macros = Tutorial\P8
Resulting path = \\myShare\resources\Tutorial\P8
Note:
Only existing folders are valid. Non-existing folders are not created by EEC.
