11.9. Use new environment variable $CADENAS_POOL

In order to specify the CAD pool environment please use the new environment variable $CADENAS_POOL.[53]

The common solution is %CADENAS_POOL%/cadsystem

  • is a writable directory

  • in the case of RFS it is set locally without the need to adjust the CFGs (independently of CADENAS_DATA)

  • in the case of PARTS4CAD Deluxe it is overwritten centrally

Fallback: If the environment variable CADENAS_POOL is not set in the custom installation, %CADENAS_DATA%/pool is used automatically.

Background information: The old specification with %CADENAS_DATA%/pool/cadsystem is problematic for different reasons:

  • for RFS it's wrong as it points to the RFS catalog which is not writable

  • for PARTS4CAD Deluxe actually an adaption to %userdata%/documents should be made in each CAD
