Installation on Microsoft Windows

Unless you have an existing Oracle installation, install the 64 bit version of https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html. You must use version 19 or later. After install, make sure your PATH includes the top directory of your Instant Client installation.

As for Linux, there are two different downloads available: A full installation to be used if you want to run your own rwl programs, and a version that only contains a set of generated executables such as ociping.

The full installation is named something like rwloadsim-Windows-x86_64-bin-3.1.2.zip, which you should unzip it into an empty directory. You subsequently need to set PATH to contain the expanded \bin directory.

If you only are interested in the generated execuables, the download is named something like generated-Windows-x86_64-bin-3.1.2.zip, which you can unzip to any directory you prefer. The exectables can be called directly from the directory or you can decide to include the directory in PATH.

If you are going to run actual simulations, you will need a repository database just like when running on Linux.
