Using Environments
Environment Structure
• a configuration file
• a system repository
• shapes, if they are different from the site standard shapes
• a “Db” folder for the repositories used in this environment.
In most cases, there is only one environment per site. It is possible to define several environments when the
site includes repositories on which users work with different resources (such as specific report templates (MS Word) or metamodel extensions).

All users must have full access rights to the resources of the environments and repositories (creation and deletion of files and folders).
The folder structure of an environment is as follows:
• Db: contains the environment repositories
• ExternalRef: contains external references of the environment
• intranet: contains the Web sites generated in the environment
• Mega_usr: contains shapes specific to the environment
• SysDb: the system repository
