Aecosim building designer Server workspace/local workspace query

In addition to the configuration sections of the help files there is a series of helpful posts on configuration in Bear's blog: communities.bentley.com/.../default.aspx

Do you have an existing server workspace for MicroStation?

Hi,

I am not a programmer. I went through Bear's blog. Very impressive but I do not understand much to make something of mi own.

I have a network storage center on witch have Copied the whole dir C:\ProgramData\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner V8i Ss4\WorkSpace\BuildingDatasets\ to my F:\ProgramData\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner V8i Ss4\WorkSpace\BuildingDatasets\.

I synchronize  them. The problem is that sometimes I forget on whitch drive I am working.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Rigards

Easy way to work that is to have your cfg file in the appl directory look for both and set based on which one it finds.

An example would be:

%if exists (f:/Bentley/Standards/.)

_USTN_SITE = f:/Bentley/Standards/

%endif

%if exists (z:/Bentley/Standards/.)

_USTN_SITE = z:/Bentley/Standards/

%endif

The way this works is that _USTN_SITE is set based on which path is found. This way you can use your different locations, but have only one cfg file.

Thanks Bear, I am going to try it out.

Regards Bear
