Convention Use

ENV_HOME

TIBCO_HOME

ADSBL_HOME

TIBCO products are installed into an installation environment. A productinstalled into an installation environment does not access components in otherinstallation environments. Incompatible products and multiple instances of thesame product must be installed into different installation environments.

An installation environment consists of the following properties:

• Name Identifies the installation environment. This name is referenced indocumentation as ENV_NAME. On Microsoft Windows, the name isappended to the name of Windows services created by the installer and is acomponent of the path to the product shortcut in the Windows Start > AllPrograms menu.

• Path The folder into which the product is installed. This folder is referencedin documentation as TIBCO_HOME.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for Siebel installs into a directory within aTIBCO_HOME. This directory is referenced in documentation as ADSBL_HOME.The default value of ADSBL_HOME depends on the operating system. Forexample, on Windows systems, the default value isC:\tibco\adapter\adsbl\version_number.

code font Code font identifies commands, code examples, filenames, pathnames, andoutput displayed in a command window. For example:

Use MyCommand to start the foo process.

bold code

font

Bold code font is used in the following ways:

• In procedures, to indicate what a user types. For example: Type admin.

• In large code samples, to indicate the parts of the sample that are ofparticular interest.

• In command syntax, to indicate the default parameter for a command. Forexample, if no parameter is specified, MyCommand is enabled:MyCommand [enable | disable]

italic font Italic font is used in the following ways:

• To indicate a document title. For example: See TIBCO ActiveMatrixBusinessWorks Concepts.

• To introduce new terms For example: A portal page may contain severalportlets. Portlets are mini-applications that run in a portal.

• To indicate a variable in a command or code syntax that you must replace.For example: MyCommand PathName

Keycombinations

Key name separated by a plus sign indicate keys pressed simultaneously. Forexample: Ctrl+C.

Key names separated by a comma and space indicate keys pressed one after theother. For example: Esc, Ctrl+Q.

The note icon indicates information that is of special interest or importance, forexample, an additional action required only in certain circumstances.

The tip icon indicates an idea that could be useful, for example, a way to applythe information provided in the current section to achieve a specific result.

The warning icon indicates the potential for a damaging situation, for example,data loss or corruption if certain steps are taken or not taken.
