2. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__I_n_f_o_r_m_a_t_i_o_n
This chapter lists information that is supplemental to the
_S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_o_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e and the
installation instructions in the _P_e_r_s_o_n_a_l _S_y_s_t_e_m
_A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e. The information listed here is
product-specific; use it with either of those Guides to
install this product.
2.1 _I_R_I_X__I_M__D_e_v_e_l_o_p_m_e_n_t__E_n_v_i_r_o_n_m_e_n_t__S_u_b_s_y_s_t_e_m_s
The motif_dev includes these subsystems:
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._m_a_n._d_e_v Preformatted reference manual
pages. This subsystem is
intended to be installed on
systems that _d_o _n_o_t have the
_n_r_o_f_f text formatting program.
There is no reason to install
both this and
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._m_a_n._d_e_v_m_a_n_s_r_c.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._m_a_n._d_e_v_m_a_n_s_r_c Source for the reference
manual pages. This subsystem
is intended to be installed on
systems that _d_o have the _n_r_o_f_f
text formatting program. This
subsystem takes less disk
space, displays better looking
manual pages (especially the
tables), and displays them
faster than the preformatted
manual pages. There is no
reason to install both this
and _m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._m_a_n._d_e_v.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._m_a_n._r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s Motif developer release notes.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._M_r_m-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
(/_u_s_r/_l_i_b and /_u_s_r/_l_i_b_3_2)
_l_i_b_M_r_m__d._s_o, the dynamic debug
version of _l_i_b_M_r_m for use with
the o32 and n32 compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._M_r_m-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_M_r_m._a, the static version
of _l_i_b_M_r_m for use with the o32
and n32 compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._U_i_l-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_U_i_l__d._s_o, the dynamic debug
- 2 -
version of _l_i_b_U_i_l for use with
the o32 and n32 compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._U_i_l-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_U_i_l._a, the static version
of _l_i_b_U_i_l for use with the o32
and n32 compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._X_m-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_X_m__d._s_o and _l_i_b_S_g_m__d._s_o,
the dynamic debug libraries
for use with the o32 and n32
compilers. If you link your
software with the debug
library while you are in the
process of developing it, then
stack traces will be more
meaningful to you. This may
be helpful in understanding
bugs in your own code, even
without access to the library
source.
If you have access to
OSF/Motif library source, the
debug library may be even more
helpful to you (even though
the line numbers will not
match exactly).
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._X_m-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_X_m._a and _l_i_b_S_g_m._a, the
static libraries for use with
the o32 and n32 compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._d_e_v This subsystem contains Motif
header files and make
templates.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._d_e_m_o This subsystem contains
demonstration programs as
supplied by OSF.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w._d_e_m_o_S_G_I This subsystem contains
demonstration programs, as
supplied by OSF, that have
been modified to show how to
use Xt and Motif with non-
standard visuals. It also
includes demonstration
programs for new widgets
- 3 -
supplied by Silicon Graphics.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._M_r_m-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_M_r_m__d._s_o, the dyanmic debug
version of _l_i_b_M_r_m, for use
with 64 bit compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._M_r_m-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_M_r_m._a, the static version
of _l_i_b_M_r_m, for use with 64 bit
compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._U_i_l-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_U_i_l__d._s_o, the dynamic debug
version of _l_i_b_U_i_l, for use
with 64 bit compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._U_i_l-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_U_i_l._a, the static version
of _l_i_b_U_i_l, for use with 64 bit
compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._X_m-_d_e_b_u_g This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_X_m__d._s_o and _l_i_b_S_g_m__d._s_o,
the dynamic debug libraries
for use with 64 bit compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._X_m-_s_t_a_t_i_c This subsystem contains
_l_i_b_X_m._a and _l_i_b_S_g_m._a the
static libraries for use with
64 bit compilers.
_m_o_t_i_f__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._d_e_v This subsystem contains
directories for the 64 bit
libraries. It does not contain
any files itself, so its size
(see below) is reported as 0
(zero).

This section lists the subsystems (and their sizes) of the
IRIX IM Development Environment.
You can use the software installation instructions in the
_P_e_r_s_o_n_a_l _S_y_s_t_e_m _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e to install this
product. If you are installing this software for the first
time, the default subsystems are installed if you click the
_I_n_s_t_a_l_l _A_u_t_o_m_a_t_i_c_a_l_l_y button. To install a different set of
- 4 -
subsystems, click the _C_u_s_t_o_m_i_z_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n button and make
your new selections. Then click the _S_t_a_r_t button to launch
the installation.

All of the subsystems for the IRIX IM Development
Environment can be installed using IRIX. You do not need to
use the miniroot. Refer to the _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n
_A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_o_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e or the installation instructions in
the _P_e_r_s_o_n_a_l _S_y_s_t_e_m _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e for complete
installation instructions.

2.4 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
To use the 1.2.4-6.5 release of the IRIX IM Development
Environment, your workstation must:
+o Be running IRIX release IRIX 6.5 or later.
+o Have _m_o_t_i_f__e_o_e._s_w._e_o_e (which contains the run-time
shared libraries) installed.
+o Have _m_o_t_i_f__e_o_e._s_w._u_i_l installed for _u_i_l-based
development.
2.5 _C_o_m_p_a_t_i_b_i_l_i_t_y
+o IRIX IM in IRIX 6.5 is based on OSF/Motif 1.2.4 It also
has up to date bug fixes and some SGI extensions.
+o A static shared library, binary identical to that
provided with IRIX 4.0.5, is included with the
_m_o_t_i_f__e_o_e software. In this release, you cannot link
for that version of the shared library (except by using
the available IRIX 4 Compatibility Build Environment).
Motif binary applications that were linked for that
version run unchanged. Such an application gets
neither the bug fixes nor the new features that are
provided with the new library.
+o If your application was linked with pre-5.0 static
shared libraries, the application must be linked with
the libraries from this release to get the new features
and bug fixes.
+o Programs built with this software are intended to
execute against an X11R5 server, such as one running
IRIX 6.5. Programs built with this software are
believed to also execute properly against an X11R4
server, such as those running IRIX 4.0.x releases, but
that capability has not been well tested, and is
therefore not guaranteed.
+o Due to changes in the ._u_i_d file format as of IRIX 5.0,
you cannot use the _u_i_l that comes with this software to
build ._u_i_d files to use on IRIX 4.0 or earlier
releases.
+o Due to changes in executable file format as of IRIX
5.0, you cannot use this software to build programs to
execute on IRIX 4.0 or earlier releases.
- 6 -
+o For the most part, Motif programs and Imakefiles or
Makefiles should work unchanged in this release. That
is, bringing a program up to this level should be a
simple recompile.
