3.4 Locating OpenDoc for OS/2 in The Developer Connection Catalog

After installing The Developer Connection Catalog on your system, you are now ready to install OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Insert disc 3 of The Developer Connection for OS/2 Volume 9 Special Edition in your CD-ROM drive (make sure it is marked as Special Edition).

2. Double-click on the Developer Connection icon on the Desktop to open the folder. You will get the contents folder shown in Figure 69 in topic 3.3.

3. Double-click on the Developer Connection for OS/2 icon in The Developer Connection folder to open the folder. The screen shown in Figure 70 will appear.

This folder contains three icons, a Readme file containing information related to The Developer Connection, and two different The Developer Connection Catalogs: The Developer Connection Catalog and The Developer Connection Prototype IPF Catalog. The Developer Connection Catalog was included in previous The Developer Connection versions and will be used to install the different products described in this chapter. The Developer Connection Prototype IPF Catalog (IPF stands for Information Presentation Facility) shows the catalog in a format similar to the OS/2 INF files (see Figure 71).

Although it can also be used to install different components of the catalog (including OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0) on your system, we will not cover it in this book.
