Binary Distribution Structure

The large binary file is the Iguana application.
Some optional environment variables can also be set:
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
| CHM_PYTHON_LIB_PATH | This is the directory that the python lib files are located in. By default if this value is empty when Iguana starts, Iguana will use the “lib” subdirectory of the Chameleon installation. If another lib directory will be used, it can be specified before starting |
Note: You can also specify the directory in which the Iguana configuration file is located. See Specifying the Configuration File Directory for more details.
