R Documentation

Search for simplace installations and returns results as vector

Description

Checks directories if they contain simplace_core, simplace_modules and optionally simplace_run (or a data directory given by the user) and returns the matches. There is no check whether the installation is really working.

Usage

findSimplaceInstallations(
  directories = c(),
  tryStandardDirs = TRUE,
  firstMatchOnly = FALSE,
  simulationsDir = "simplace_run",
  ignoreSimulationsDir = FALSE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

`directories`	a list of additional directories where to look -
`tryStandardDirs`	whether to check for typical installation directories (default)
`firstMatchOnly`	returns only the first installation found
`simulationsDir`	directory that contains user simulations (e.g. simplace_run)
`ignoreSimulationsDir`	don't check for the simulation dir
`verbose`	prints messages if no or more than one installation found

Details

Beside the checks for some standard directories (like home directory, current working dir and drives c: to g:) and their subdirectories (workspace, simplace, java/simplace) the user can give a vector of additional directories.
