Getting Started


    UnixWare and OpenServer Development Kit Feature Supplement 7.1.1b

Please note: The UDK Feature Supplement, Version 7.1.1b is no longer supported on UnixWare 7 systems. It has been superceded by the Open UNIX Development Kit Version 8.0.0 (OUDK) which is the latest complete update of the UDK for UnixWare 7 and Open UNIX 8 systems and is included in the Open UNIX 8 Release 8.0.0 media kit.


The UnixWare and OpenServer Development Kit, or UDK 7.1.1, is the software development kit that accompanies the UnixWare® 7 and OpenServerTM 5 products, and that gives you the ability to create a single binary that will run on other Caldera operating system platforms as well.

The UDK Feature Supplement Version 7.1.1b is a partial upgrade (not a full replacement) to the full UDK Version 7.1.1. It does not require the base 7.1.1 UDK to be installed prior to installation. However, if any UDK packages that are not also part of the UDK Feature Supplement are needed, the 7.1.1 UDK should be installed prior to installing the Feature Supplement. A suggested order of package installs is given in the Release Notes.

See the UDK Feature Supplement Release Notes that are also available on the UDK Feature Supplement download page for complete details and description of this Feature Supplement. For the Release Notes to the underlying base UnixWare and OpenServer Development Kit, see the UnixWare 7 documentation at http://www.caldera.com/support/docs, select UnixWare 7, then "Late News" and then "Release 7.1.1 Software development notes".

System Requirements

Although this UDK UDK Feature Supplement will continue to install on UnixWare 7 Release 7.1.1, it is now only supported for installation, development use, and runtime execution of built applications on the following platforms:

Note that the Feature Supplement sets cannot be installed on earler Caldera OpenServer 5 releases.

Installation

The UDK Feature Supplement is available as three separately downloadable sets that are in pkgadd installable data stream format. In addition, there is a downloadable tar file containing an updated version of the UDK Release Notes in both text and html format.

SetApprox. SizeDescription
udkfs50MBUpgraded UDK development packages and new runtime packages.
udkrtfs13MBUpgraded OSRcompat package.
udkdocfs41MB Updated UDK documentation.

To install the UDK Feature Supplement you can choose any of the UDK FS sets to download.

Once you have downloaded the product files from the Download page, perform the following steps as root:

  1. Move the files to a preferred installation directory (make sure there is enough space available), for example:
    mkdir /udkfsTmp
    mv  udkfs.image.Z  /udkfsTmp or
    mv  udkrtfs.image.Z  /udkfsTmp
  2. Change to the installation directory:
    cd  /udkfsTmp
  3. Uncompress any of the files that have been compressed, that is any file suffixed with ".Z":
    uncompress  *.Z
  4. In order to install the UDK Feature Supplement set (udkfs) on Caldera OpenServer 5, a copy of the OSRcompat package must already be installed. To determine if OSRcompat is installed, enter:
    pkginfo  OSRcompat
    If an older version is already installed, you can simply install the udkfs being sure to select OSRcompat from the installation menu. It is not necessary to remove the old OSRcompat before installing the new version. If no OSRcompat package is installed, you can extract and install it from the udkfs set as follows:
    pkgadd  -d  /udkfsTmp/udkfs.image OSRcompat

  5. Install the selected sets as follows:
    pkgadd  -d  /udkfsTmp/udkfs.image
  6. When you you have completed the installation, you will probably want to remove the download packages from the /udkfsTmp directory.

  7. Extract the Release Notes:
    tar xvf releasenotes.tar
