nicholas_yue Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Hi, I am attempting to package up various dso/fb dso/mantra dso/*.so scripts/* and the associated VRAYprocedural and FB* files for deployment/installation into a single directory (with version number, platform and Houdini version ) Is there some variable I can allow individual user to set to point to different version ? Assuming I have it properly laid out as expected by houdini, is there a single environment variable I can use to get Houdini to look there ? I tried HOUDINI_CUSTOM_PATH but it didn't work. I want to avoid having to setup up individual HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH, HOUDINI_DSO_PATH ....etc if possible. I have browse through : http://odforce.net/wiki/doku.php?id=customizinghoudini but it does not seem to help me, Maybe I am going about the wrong way and hence encountering this problem. I am hoping to have minimal installation steps for the end users and no manual copying of files when switching between different versions of my package.

nicholas_yue Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Answering my own post.... Yes, it is mentioned in http://odforce.net/wiki/doku.php?id=customizinghoudini On Unix/OSX though, need to escape & via \& to prevent it from being interpreted as putting process in background.
