Convention for File Paths

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

•<opt_dir>—directory in which main product files are stored (including executable files and libraries);

•<etc_dir>—directory in which the configuration file and the key file are stored;

•<var_dir>—directory in which supplementary and temporary product files are stored.

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

For space considerations, examples use paths for GNU/Linux operating systems. In some places of the document, where it is possible, examples contain real paths for all supported operating systems.
