Installing a Binary Release

A Shore binary release contains contains everything needed to write, compile and run Shore applications. A binary release is specific to a particular hardware/OS platform and is compiled with either debugging/auditing support or extra optimization and no debugging support.

Set the shell variables TARDIR and SHROOT and create the directory $SHROOT as explained in the Requirements section. Follow these steps to install a binary release for SPARC Solaris 1.5 with full debugging support.

    cd $SHROOT
    gzip -d -c $TARDIR/sparc.dbg.tar.gz | tar -xvf -

(Substitute x86 for sparc and/or opt for dbg as appropriate.)

This step creates sub-directories bin, lib and include in $SHROOT. If you are installing both debugging and non-debugging binaries, un-tar them in distinct subdirectories of $SHROOT.

That's it! You can test your installation by following the instructions in the Section Testing Your Installation.
