Description

After dezipping the COBIA binaries, After reading the readme file, I started immediately to run the COBIA PME (32 bits). The GUI appeared and then I asked for the list of Property Packages. I got a crash. I went back to the readme file and I followed the instruction on the first line ("please run registerCobiaFolder.vbs in order to register") which did not strike me at first as necessary for running the COBIA PME since it does not say what needs to be registered through that. After running registerCobiaFolder, I relaunched the COBIA PME and was successful in the tests. So I think it should be made more obvious in the instructions what needs to be done prior to any use of either the COBIA PMEs or PMCs.

I believe I fixed this already after supplying the test binaries. The result of capeInitialize() was not checked. Now, at capeInitialize() returning false, the test PME will exit with an error message instead of crash.
