Installing the |rti_me_h| Package
=================================

|rti_me| is provided in one of 4 RTI target packages 

- rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg
- rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg
- rti_connext_dds_micro_security_sdk-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg
- rti_connext_dds_micro_security_sdk-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg

Note: you must first install |rti_core| and install either  
``rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg`` or 
``rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg`` before the corresponding 
security SDK packages can be installed 

Once installed, you will see a directory ``rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0`` in the |rti_core| 
installation directory. This installation directory contains 
this documentation, the *rtiddsgen* code 
generation tool, and example source code. Note that a JRE is needed to execute 
*rtiddsgen*. A host bundle with JRE is shipped for build environments without 
JRE installed. A host bundle without JRE is also available for build environments 
that already have JRE installed.

It is strongly recommended that you copy the |rti_me| installation directory outside of the 
|rti_core| installation. This is because it may not be desirable to build the |rti_me| libraries
in |rti_core| installation directory. To copy |rti_me| to another location, open up the |rti_core| Launcher, 
navigate to the **Utilities** tab and click on the
**Copy Micro SDK** and follow the instructions. See image below for a visual aid.
