Installation Procedure

Running the setup script

The installation script for the ICS products is called setup. To run the setup script, follow these steps:

  1. Login as root.
  2. Mount the CD according the BX PRO 5.0 CD-ROM Mounting Instructions, included with the BX PRO 5.0 CD. If you are unsure how to do this, consult your system administrator.
  3. Change directories to the mount directory.
  4. Run ./setup.
  5. If the script cannot find the mount point, you are prompted to specify a mount point:
    Enter the CD-ROM mount point:
  6. You are given a list of packages and asked which you want to install. Enter the number corresponding to the desired package.

The following section outlines a complete BX PRO1 installation. Installation of all other packages is similar.

Note: The installation sequence may vary depending on the options you choose.

License manager

If you are installing BX PRO or Builder Xcessory, you may also need to install the FLEXlm license manager. FLEXlm version 3.0 is provided on the BX PRO 5.0 CD-ROM. If you have previously installed version 3.0 or later of the license manager server, or if your system provides version 3.0 or later, you do not need to install FLEXlm.

Library products

ICS library products (for example, EnhancementPak and ViewKit), do not require the license manager.

  1. Specify the architecture and operating system of the platform on which you want to install:
    Choose from one of the following items:
    (1) Sparc
    (2) HP
    (3) IBM
    (4) SGI
    (5) Alpha
    (6) Exit
    Select destination Architecture... "Sparc" 1

    For example, assume that you choose the default, (1) Sparc

    Choose from one of the following items:
    (1) SunOS 4.1 (4.x compatible)
    (2) Solaris 5.4 (5.x compatible)
    (3) Other
    (4) Exit
    Select destination platform: OS and version... "Solaris 5.5.1" 2
    Destination Platform: Solaris 5.5.1 (Sparc)
  2. Enter the directory into which you would like the software installed. If the directory does not exist, the installer prompts you and optionally creates it for you.
    [BX PRO 5.0]
    Enter the BX PRO installation directory: "/usr/bxpro"
    Directory "/usr/bxpro" does not exist.
    Create named directory? {yes/no} "yes" yes
  3. Enter your decryption key2. This key is required to copy the software from the CD-ROM and is included with your software. If you are installing the evaluation versions of any of the software, a decryption key is not necessary (hit Enter to skip this step).
    [BX PRO 5.0]
    Enter the BX PRO library decryption key: 1234abcd5678efgh
  4. You have the option to automatically create symbolic links from /usr/include, /usr/lib, and /usr/man to the installed software.
    [BX PRO 5.0]
    Link libraries and includes in /usr directories {yes/no} no
  5. You now have various options, which differ from platform to platform. In this case, you have the option to select which application defaults files to install:
    [BX 5.0 Binaries for Solaris 2.4+]
    Choose from one of the following items:
    (1) CDE Styles/Widget Integration
    Choosing CDE Styles/Widget Integration installs application defaults files for Builder Xcessory which use the CDE Color and Font palettes. Additionally, this option installs support the CDE widgets found in libDtWidget.
    (2) Default BX
    Choosing the Default BX option uses the default Builder Xcessory application defaults file. No changes are made to make use of platform-specific color and font palettes.
    Choose the default integration: 1
  6. You have the option to install the EPak PRO debug libraries:
    Install optional part "EPak Debug Libraries" (8.91 Mbytes) {yes/no} "yes" yes

ViewKit only

  1. Because of differences in supported C++ compilers, you may need to install the correct version of the ViewKit ObjectPak libraries.
    [BX PRO 5.0 ViewKit Libraries for Solaris 2.4+]
    Choose from one of the following items:
    (1) C Front C++ Compiler
    Choosing C Front C++ Compiler will install ViewKit libraries compatible with SunSoft C++ Version 2.0. This is SunSoft's cfront-based compiler.
    (2) Native C++ Compiler
    Choosing Native C++ Compiler will install ViewKit libraries compatible with SunSoft C++ Version 3.0 or higher. This is SunSoft's native C++ compiler.
    (3) GNU C++ Compiler
    Choosing GNU C++ Compiler will install ViewKit libraries compatible with version 2.7.2 of the GNU C++ Compiler (g++).
    Choose your C++ Compiler: 2
  2. You have the option to install the ViewKit debug libraries:
    Install optional part "ViewKit Debug Libraries" (15.97 Mbytes) {yes/no} "yes" yes
  3. You now have the option to configure your Imake environment for ViewKit ObjectPak. Your site.def file must be located in the customary location, /usr/lib/X11/config or /usr/openwin/config, for this to succeed.
    [ViewKit Options]
    Set up ViewKit Imake support in site.def {yes/no} no
  4. You have the option to install the ViewKit example code:

  6. You have the option to install the EPak example code:
    Install optional part "EPak 3.0.1 Example Code" (1.11 Mbytes) {yes/no} "yes" yes
  7. Confirm that the correct software packages are to be installed. The installer displays the install tree. "Leaves" of the tree have sizes associated with them.

This decryption key differs from the BX license key because the decryption key is used only to load the software from the CD-ROM and is supplied with your software. A license key, required only for BX PRO and Builder Xcessory, is obtained by contacting ICS and providing information on your host system. Refer to "Obtaining Your License Activation Key" and "Troubleshooting FLEXlm" for more information.
