For directory paths, symbolic references (indicated by <>) are often used in place of actual values. These references are resolved during proxy generation.

When ProxyGen is run on UNIX, all directories and filenames are converted automatically to UNIX format. ProxyGen uses symbolic references in several generation options, to allow the greatest portability for the project file, particularly when the file is used on UNIX.

The symbolic references and their expanded values are shown in the following table:

Table 1. Symbolic references to Java Open Client directory paths
<Default classes.zip> Windows:   %DLC%\jdk\lib\classes.zip UNIX:         $JDKCP
<Install Dir> Windows:   %DLC% UNIX:        $DLC
<Proxy Dir> The Output Directory field value described in General settings for proxy generation. Progress Software Corporation recommends you always leave this symbolic reference and change the Output Directory value in the general settings to alter the proxy output directory.
