Convention for File Paths

Real paths to files and components depend on the operating system. The document uses the following conventions for directories:

<opt_dir>—directory where main product files are located (including executable files and libraries);

<etc_dir>—directory where the configuration file and a key file are located;

<var_dir>—directory where supporting and temporary product files are located.

Real paths corresponding to the conventions in different operating systems are given in the table below.
