• To ensure that the .NET product is installed correctly, open a Command Prompt and type "cl" to invoke the compiler. Then type "link" to invoke the linker/binder. Confirm that each of these commands returns the correct information for the .NET installation.

opening

    'cmd' at Run, and trying the command-line compiler and linker with the commands 'cl' and 'link' respectively.  If the environment is configured correctly, you should NOT get a "Bad command or filename" and the commands should execute.

• =============
• If you are using .NET 2005 on WinXP, then you will need to follow this additional step:
• =============
• After you have configrued your environment as listed above, open Windows Explorer and copy files from your \sys\pc_intel_win32\bin\manifest to \sys\pc_intel_win32\bin.

• If you are using .NET 2005 on a 64-bit machine, you will need to copy the corresponding manifest files from \sys\pc_amd_win64\bin\manifest to \sys\pc_amd_win64\bin.

• After this, you can start modeler and run simulations as usual.

• Note: There is a contributed paper with detailed steps and screenhots to help you set up this environment easily.
