    TOOLSET REQUIREMENTS: (Windows Platforms Only)

    The Help Viewer requires that Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 3.02 or > later) be set up on a user's computer. It is not required that Internet Explorer be used as the system's default browser, or that the Internet Explorer icon be visible on the user's desktop.

    If you choose not to make Internet Explorer your default browser, you will need to:

    1. Install Internet Explorer 3.02 or above
    2. Run Hhupd.exe (in redist). This file is the distribution executable that installs the run-time components needed for an HTML Help Project such as Hh.exe, Hhctrl.ocx, Itss.dll, and Itircl.dll. Hhupd.exe is in the Redist folder of the HTML Help Workshop folder.

    COMPILER:

    You must have a C++ compiler installed on your system if you wish to make use of the code generation and execution capabilities of Rose RealTime. Different compilers are required for the host workstation and for embedded system targets. The list of supported compilers and targets is provided in the Getting Started Guide for Rational Rose RealTime.

    REAL-TIME OPERATING SYSTEM:

    If you are planning to deploy your model on a real-time operating system, your operating system, hardware and tool lineup must be one of the supported lineups. Please consult the Getting Started Guides for information on the supported line-ups for the product. Note the update below with respect to the use of directories with spaces - if you are using an RTOS which does not handle this, you will need to follow the workaround as specified.

    After your installation has been completed, we recommend that you get started by reviewing the online tutorials. See the tutorials reference, which can be found through the online Help Menu.
