Step 2. Create and populate default directory structure

Step 2.A Define a root-directory for the application

Assumption:

• The <NGMS-root> directory is located at D:\NGMS-root
• The \bin-directory contains the FEWS-binary, located D:\NGMS\bin
• the \jre-directory contains the Java RunTime Environment (version 1.5.0_11), located in D:\NGMS\jre

Sample names:

• the <Region>-directory is named <Region> and is located in D:\NGMS\<Region>
• the model abbreviation is named XXX
• the full model name is YYY

Step 2.B Populate the directory

Unzip SampleRegion.zip into the region directory.

Step 2.C Create associated executable for testing purposes

1. Unzip MyRegion.jpif.zip to the \bin-directory.
2. Rename MyRegion.exe to <Region>.exe
3. Rename MyRegion.jpif to <Region>.jpif
4. Open the jpif-file and replace the last line by the Region-directory. The content should be as follows:

..\jre
-mx1024m
-cp
$JARS_PATH$
nl.wldelft.fews.gui.explorer.Application
<Region>
