Environment required by the command line tool

The command-line version of the Import Tool must be started in the Simcenter Amesim environment. Conditions that must be met:

• The AME environment variable must reference the root directory of a working, installed Simcenter Amesim distribution.
• A C compiler must be available: on Windows, Microsoft Visual Studio 2017-2022 (or later) or the Mingw64/gcc bundled with Simcenter Amesim; on Linux, typically gcc, though other compilers (e.g. Intel C compiler) are allowed. The compiler compiles the import submodel source code, similarly to the Submodel Editor.
• The PATH environment variable must include the absolute path to the Simcenter Amesim distribution root (the same directory referenced by AME). On Windows specifically, additional path entries related to the compiler toolchain are also required for the build to succeed.
