3.5 Installation of IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3

 

   To develop OpenDoc parts for OS/2, you need to install on your system IBM 
   Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3.  The Toolkit contains the 
   following tools for developers: 


   °   Header files 


   °   Library files 


   °   Online documents 


   °   Programming tools 


   °   Sample application programs 




   The version of the Toolkit shipped in The Developer Connection for OS/2 
   Volume 9 Special Edition has been updated to provide the support needed to 
   develop OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0 parts. 


   Before installing IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 on your 
   system, you should have installed OpenDoc for OS/2 as described in 
   "Installation of OpenDoc for OS/2" in topic 3.4.1. 


   Also check the software and hardware requirements as detailed in 
   "Installation Overview of OpenDoc for OS/2 for Developers" in topic 3.2. 


   The Developer Connection Catalog offers you the choice of installing IBM 
   Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 directly from CD-ROM or 
   creating the diskettes if you want to install it on a system with no 
   CD-ROM attached. 


   To install IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 directly from 
   CD-ROM perform the following 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. 


   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 88 will appear.

   4.  Double-click on The Developer Connection Catalog icon in The Developer 
       Connection for OS/2 folder to open the catalog. 


       Note:  In this volume of The Developer Connection for OS/2, a new IPF 
       prototype catalog has been included. Although it can also be used to 
       install IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 on your 
       system, we will not cover it in this book.  You can find some 
       information on this new catalog in "Locating OpenDoc for OS/2 in The 
       Developer Connection Catalog" in topic 3.4. 


   5.  Double-click on the Developer Toolkits (Discs 2/3) icon to expand the 
       category.  You will get The Developer Connection for OS/2 - Main View 
       window shown in Figure 89.  Use the scroll bar on the right of the 
       window to scroll until the end of the Developer Toolkits category to 
       reach IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3.

   9.  On the next screen (as shown in Figure 93) you can select which 
       components of IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 you want 
       to install.

       The default selections (as shown in Figure 93) will install all of the 
       components of the IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 on 
       your machine.  However, you can change the selections if you are not 
       interested in all of them or have limited disk space (the complete 
       installation of IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 
       requires 90 MB of disk space).  You can check the space required for 
       your selections on the right side of the screen.  (In the example 
       shown the space available is less than the space required for the 
       installation.)  To change the destination directory, overtype the 
       contents of the Destination field. (As soon as you type a different 
       drive letter, the window will show you the space available on that 
       drive.) 


       Selecting the Options push button on the bottom of the window shown in 
       Figure 93 will show you the Installation Options screen shown in 
       Figure 94. 


   10. Once you have finished with your selections, select the Install 
       button. This will make the Installation Options screen appear 
       (Figure 94) if you have not checked the options in the previous step.

   Figure 94. Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Installation Options 


       All the lines on this screen are selected as default, since all of 
       them are required to complete the installation of IBM Developer's 
       Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3.  Select OK on this screen to 
       continue. 


   11. The Installation status screen (shown in Figure 95) will appear.

       Depending on the selections you made on the screen shown in Figure 93, 
       the installation of IBM Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3 
       will take some time since a lot of files will be copied to your 
       system.  Be patient, the process may take half an hour with a slow 
       machine. 


   12. Once all the files have been copied you will be informed of the 
       successful installation with the screen shown in Figure 96.

   13. Select OK on this screen. 


   14. Reboot your system so the changes on CONFIG.SYS made during the 
       installation can take effect.
