The INSIGHT and PARASOFT environment variables
Versions of Insure++ earlier than 2.1 required that an
environment variable called INSIGHT be set
to the Insure installation directory. Beginning with version
2.1, Insure only requires that the
bin.$ARCH directory be on your path.
Versions of Insure++ starting with 3.1 added
the PARASOFT environment variable. The only
difference between the two variables is that INSIGHT
is used only by Insure++, while PARASOFT is used
by all ParaSoft tools. They both perform the same function.
If you find it useful to set either variable, remember that it will
be used by Insure++, so it must be set correctly.
To verify that the variable is set correctly, execute the command
echo $INSIGHT
- it should be set to the Insure installation directory
- if the end is "
/bin.sun4" (or similar
for different platforms) it is set incorrectly
- when you execute the command "
ls $INSIGHT", the output should look like:
-> ls $INSIGHT
bin.sun4/ examples/ help/ include/
lib.sun4 man/ src.sun4/
(with the appropriate platform name(s), of course)
If you cannot get it set correctly, unset it completely by executing the
command
unsetenv INSIGHT
