| Configuring Framework EDI (FREDI) |
The following topic discusses how FREDI files are configured and set in the installed system.
When FREDI is installed, the components are automatically configured for use. The files are separated into the following folders in the target path:
The BIN folder contains the core library files while the SAMPLE folder contains files of sample programs. Another folder, TEMP, is dynamically created to contain runtime temporary files that EDIdEv components and applications create. This directory is volatile and files are constantly being created and deleted in this folder.
WARNING: Do not save important files in the TEMP folder. Files will be erased under this folder. Also, the TEMP folder could also be completely removed when the FREDI is uninstalled, erasing all files and folders created under it.
The following DLLs are self-registering and during install they will automatically be registered. It is important that the type libraries (.TLB) are in the same folder with their associated DLLs because during registration the DLLs will locate their type libraries in the same path to register them.
To manually register or unregister these DLLs, use the REGSVR32.EXE utility that comes with the Windows operating system.
The FREDI .NET hybrid file called EDIdEv.FrameworkEDI.NET.dll is automatically installed into the global assembly cache (GAC). To manually install the file to the GAC, use the GACUTIL.EXE utility. Example,
gacutil /i EDIdEv.FrameworkEDI.NET.dll
To uninstall FREDI, use the control panel’s Add/Remove programs.
The FREDI registry settings are stored under the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EDIDEV
