How do I make Trace32 path working for all other users?

The configuration file with named config.t32 under installation of Trace32 has a static directory default as SYS=C:\T32.

When other user runs this file in their system it doesn't runs because they have installed Trace32 in different location.

How can I fix this and make this path work for all users.

Solution

  • In addition to Holger's answer,

    I have a huge development team, and to sneak into every setup or to change the path all the time is not possible with common SCM and multiple Test Benches, hence to make more standard tool chain environment, here is something I did.

    1. We have defined an environment Variable which has a users string to be defined into Developers PC / on Test Bench.

    e.g. Project_BuildSupport="C:\Tools" (user can defined any path of his choice)

    1. Enter the Environment Variable defined in above step into config.t32 wherever installed.

    e.g.

    SYS=${Project_BuildSupport}\T32-R.2020.09 ;ENV Variable 

HELP=${Project_BuildSupport}\T32-R.2020.09\pdf ;For help

    In this way all the system setup is path independent and user can use installation path of his choice in his PC.

    Only con side I can see of this method is, that each Lauterbach user need to have the same Environment variable Project_BuildSupport defined in all the systems used in a team.
