This is the HELP MESSAGE 1
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. ID_APP ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
IBM OS2 C comes with a Presentation Manager (PM) interactive application that
you use for the installation.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.1. Installation options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There are three installation options:
o IBM-supplied-default first time installation
o customized first time installation
o update installation
In both of the first time installations, the PM application creates all the
necessary directories and sub-directories and copies the IBM OS2 C compiler
and selected files to the appropriate locations on your hard drive. You have
the choice of accepting the default installation, or customizing the
installation (by selecting, for example, which standard libraries to install).
If you are installing an update, only new files will be copied to your hard
drive. The update installation procedure assumes that all the necessary
directories and subdirectories already exist.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1. Default first time installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
1. At an OS/2 command line, type the name of the installation program: <name

2. After the IBM OS2 C logo, the first panel of the installation program
appears. Choose the First Time Default installation option from the
Install pull down menu, as shown in .
Install pull-down of the first panel
3. A dialog panel with all the installation options appears. This panel is
shown in .
Panel showing default installation options
The only installation option that you can change is the name of the
directory that will contain the files. (All other options on the panel
are grey, which means that you cannot change them.) The default name for
this directory is C. If you want to change the name of this directory, the
installation program will default to drive C if you do not specify a
drive.
There are three action buttons at the bottom of this panel: OK, Cancel and
Help. You can select one of these buttons at any time.
o Select OK to proceed with the installation.
o Select Cancel to cancel the installation and return to the first panel.
o Select Help to display online help.
4. To continue with the default installation, click on the OK action button.
For a list of default contents, please see Reference
5. The installation program checks to see that there is enough space for all
the files on the drive which you specified. If there is not, a warning
messages appears, and you can continue or cancel the installation.
6. The installation program checks to see if the directory you specified
exist already. If it does, a warning message appears, and you can
continue or cancel the installation. If you continue, and some file names
already in the directory are the same as files being installed, the
existing files will be overwritten.
7. The installation program installs all the files, and a pop-up screen with
an OK button appears when it is complete. Click on the OK button to
return to the main installation window, and then select EXIT from the
Install pull-down menu to leave the installation program.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. ID_FIRST_CUSTOMIZE ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.1. Customized first time installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Go through the following steps to install for the first time if you want to
change the installation defaults All the necessary directories and
subdirectories will be created for you. For a list of the files in these
directories, see Reference
1. At an OS/2 command line, type: (name of the IBMC installation program)
2. After the IBM OS2 C logo, the first panel of the installation program
appears. Choose the First Time Customize installation option from the
Install pull down menu.
3. A dialog panel with all the installation options appears. The panel is the
same as that shown in , but with the customize option you can change any
of the fields.
There are three action buttons at the bottom of this panel: OK, Cancel and
Help. You can select one of these buttons at any time.
o Select OK to proceed to the next step of the installation.
o Select Cancel to cancel the installation and return to the first panel.
o Select Help to display online help.
4. You can change all the options listed on this screen. The options are:
o Target drive and directory in which will be installed
The default is C The installation program will later check to ensure
there is enough space on the drive you choose.
o Run-time libraries
Choose which standard libraries to install:
Note: You can select any combination of the options listed below, but at
least one from each category must be selected.
a. The type(s) of run-time environments to be supported: Multi-tasking
- Single tasking
- Programs that contain no run-time environment The type(s) of
programs for which support is required: Building EXEs
- Building DLLs The method of binding the IBM OS2 C. run-time library
Dynamically
- Statically
Similarly, for the C/2 migration libraries you can specify:
Note: You can select any combination of the C/2 Migration Library
options below, but at least one from each category must be
selected.
1. The type(s) of run-time environments to be supported:
Multi-tasking
- Single tasking The type(s) of programs for which support is
required: Building EXEs
- Building DLLs The method of binding the IBM OS2 C. runtime
library Dynamically
- Statically
Note:
The DLLs and import libraries are already built. This is done to
give greater flexibility, to remove the need to a build command
file and all associated module definition files, to eliminate
the build step in the install procedure, and to remove the need
for the link and import EXEC to be on the environment PATH
during installation.
2. Documentation - you can decide to install any combination of the
following documentation units:
- On-line reference documentation in IPF format.
- Soft copy of SAA C reference in BookManager format.
- Soft copy of this User's Guide in BookManager format.
3. locale utilities and data - you have the option of not installing
these
4. Sample programs - you have the option of not installing these
5. Update the CONFIG.SYS file. The options are:
a. No, the CONFIG.SYS file is not changed. You should append C
to the LIBPATH variable in the CONFIG.SYS file manually.
A corresponding EDCPATH command file is created, and you need
to run this command file in each OS/2 session before using the
compiler.
This file performs the additional SET commands needed to drive
the IBM OS2 C environment is placed in the \BIN directory.
This command file contains the following statments:
SET PATH=C /* TBD from BookManager Read */
SET TZ=ESTSEDT,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
SET DEFAULT_LOCALE=C
b. Yes, but only change the LIBPATH, DPATH and PATH variables.
The following changes will be made to the CONFIG.SYS file:
append C
A corresponding EDCPATH
command file that performs the additional SET commands
needed to drive the IBM OS2 C environment will be created and placed in
the \BIN directory. This command file will include
the following statements:
SET LIB=CDEFAULT_LOCALE=C
c. Yes, put everything in the CONFIG.SYS file. The following
changes will be made to the CONFIG.SYS file:
append CP the TMP variable
append C
A corresponding EDCPATH
command file that performs
the additional SET commands
needed to drive the IBM OS2 C environment will be created and placed in
the \BIN directory.
This command file contains the following statements:
SET TZ=ESTSEDT,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
SET DEFAULT_LOCALE=C
Warning: There is no semicolon at the end of the line for the
TMP environment variable. If you write or edit any of these
files yourself, do not add one.
6. After you have chosen your options, the space required for
installation is calculated and compared to the available space on
the drive you want to use. If there is not enough space, you will
get a warning message. At this point you can go ahead with the
installation or return to the dialog panel and change the
installation options.
7. If the directory to be created already exists, a warning message
will tell you that duplicate files in the directory will be
overwritten by the installation files. At this point you can go
ahead with the installation and overwrite these files or return
to the dialog panel and change the installation options.
8. When the installation is complete, you will get a message
indicating that the installation was successful. Click on the OK
action button to return to the first panel of the installation
program.
9. Choose the Exit option from the install pull down menu to finish
the installation procedure.
