@unnumbered Installing in brief for Unix systems
@noindent
@strong{You can run the brief installation procedure if:}
@itemize @bullet
@item
You are installing on a standard Unix platform (@pxref{Names,,Platform
Names})
@item
Your Unix machine has its own device which corresponds to your
distribution media (e.g., a @sc{qic}-24 tape drive)
@item
You're willing to use the installation directory @file{/usr/cygnus}
@item
You have enough disk space in @file{/usr/cygnus} (your tape label lists
the required disk space for binary, source, and both)
@c FIXME - make sure this is so!
@end itemize
@noindent
Otherwise, see @ref{U-Installing,,@value{RELEASE} installation on Unix}.
@noindent
@strong{Steps for Brief Install:}
(In examples, we show the system prompt as @samp{eg$}.)
@enumerate
@item
Make sure you can write in @file{/usr/cygnus} by typing:
@smallexample
eg$ su root @emph{(enter root password)}
# mkdir /usr/cygnus @emph{(ignore ``File exists'' error if any)}
# chmod 777 /usr/cygnus
# exit @emph{(root access not needed beyond this)}
@end smallexample
@item
Load the distribution into the drive and extract the @code{Install}
script. @strong{WARNING:} you must use a @emph{non--rewinding} tape
device; see @ref{U-Device names,,Device names}.
@smallexample
eg$ cd /tmp
eg$ tar xfv @var{device} Install
@end smallexample
@item
Run the @code{Install} script:
@smallexample
eg$ ./Install -tape=@var{device}
@end smallexample
@code{Install} displays messages about its activity, ending with
@smallexample
Done.
@end smallexample
@item
Build symbolic links to make execution paths easy (you may need root
access to put the link in @file{/usr}):
@smallexample
eg$ cd /usr/cygnus
eg$ ln -s @value{RELEASETAG} progressive
eg$ su root
# ln -s /usr/cygnus/progressive/H-@var{host} /usr/progressive
# exit @emph{(give up root access as soon as possible)}
@end smallexample
@item
Use your Cygnus Support customer ID (see cover letter) to tag your copy
of our problem-report form:
@smallexample
eg$ /usr/progressive/bin/install-sid @var{customer-ID}
@end smallexample
@item
Remove public write access from @file{/usr/cygnus}. See your system
administrator for the correct permissions at your site.
@end enumerate
You're done! Anyone who puts @file{/usr/progressive/bin} in their
@code{PATH} can use this @value{RELEASE} distribution.
@page
@c FIXME - relocate this so it shows up in dosonly configs
We have attempted to make the installation of the Cygnus Support
@value{RELEASE} distribution as trouble-free as possible. If you
encounter any problems, please contact us:

@unnumbered Installing in brief for @sc{ms-dos} systems
All @sc{ms-dos} releases of the @value{RELEASE} can use this brief
installation procedure. For more detail on the installation procedure,
see @ref{MSDOSDetail,,@value{RELEASE} installation on @sc{ms-dos}}.
We ship your Developer's Kit on a set of floppy disks. The
@code{INSTALL} program is included on Disk 1.
@strong{Steps for Brief Install:}
@enumerate 1
@item
Insert Disk 1 into the floppy drive (the example shows @file{A:}) and
type:
@smallexample
A:\INSTALL
@end smallexample
@item
@code{INSTALL} prompts for an installation directory; the default is
@file{C:\CYGNUS}. The tools may be installed anywhere. (If you are
installing more than one @value{RELEASE}, see
@ref{D-Directories,,@sc{ms-dos} Installation Directories}.)
Make sure the installation directory is correct and press @key{RETURN}.
@item
@code{INSTALL} first checks the installation location to make sure it
has enough space before unpacking the tools. Installed @value{RELEASE}
disk usage varies from about 10 to about 16 megabytes, depending on the
target. The disk labels list the required disk space for each
distribution.
@c FIXME - make sure this is so!
@item
@code{INSTALL} reads the first disk and then requests the next.
@item
After the last disk, press @key{RETURN} to exit the @code{INSTALL}
program.
@item
To run the programs, type @samp{@var{installdir}\SETENV} to set up your
working environment. (@var{installdir} is the installation directory
you specified, @file{C:\CYGNUS} by default.)
@smallexample
C:\> cd c:\cygnus
C:\CYGNUS\> setenv
@dots{}
@end smallexample
@item
To test the installation, change your working directory to the
@file{@var{installdir}\DEMO} subdirectory and type @samp{MAKE}:
@smallexample
C:\CYGNUS\> cd c:\cygnus\demo
C:\CYGNUS\DEMO> make
@dots{}
@end smallexample
@item
It is often easiest to set your working environment in the
initialization file @file{AUTOEXEC.BAT}. If you installed in the
default @w{@file{C:\CYGNUS}}, you can simply add the following line to
your @file{AUTOEXEC.BAT}:
@smallexample
CALL C:\CYGNUS\SETENV.BAT

@node U-Installing
@unnumberedsec Installing your @value{RELEASE} distribution
There are a few steps to follow in installing the software in the
@value{RELEASE} distribution onto your system.
@emph{Note:} For Unix distributions, your distribution tape includes two
files:
@table @asis
@item @code{Install}
The @code{Install} shell script is a portable installation procedure
which automatically installs the software on your system
(@pxref{Invoking Install,,Invoking the @code{Install} script}).
@item @emph{distribution @code{tar} file}
The binaries and source for the @value{RELEASE} distribution are located
in a single compressed @code{tar} file.
@c FIXME - in the future these will be two files
@end table
@noindent
In order for @code{Install} to read and install your distribution, you
@emph{must} use a @emph{non--rewinding} tape device, so that the tape
drive maintains the tape location at the beginning of the compressed
@code{tar} file after you extract @code{Install}. @xref{U-Device
names,,Device names}, for a list of default device names for each host
type.
@enumerate 1
@item
First, decide where to install the software. The default installation
location is @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}}.
@ifclear emacs
(To use the software conveniently from elsewhere, you may want to
reconfigure and recompile from source; see @ref{U-Running,,Running the
programs}.)
@end ifclear
@ifset emacs
(@emph{Note: This @value{RELEASE} distribution cannot be installed in a
non-standard location.}
@end ifset
If you don't wish to install in @w{@file{/usr/cygnus}} but can create a
symbolic link to it from another location,
@ifset cdk
or if you don't wish to install into @file{/usr} at all,
@end ifset
see @ref{Installing in a nonstandard location,,Installing in a
nonstandard location}.
@item
Create the installation directory, if it doesn't already exist, and make
sure it's publicly accessible so @code{Install} can write there. For
example, if you use the default installation directory of
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus}}:
@smallexample
eg$ su root @emph{(enter root password to write in @file{/usr})}
# mkdir /usr/cygnus @emph{(ignore ``File exists'' error if any)}
# chmod 777 /usr/cygnus
# exit @emph{(root access not needed beyond this)}
@end smallexample
@item
Make sure you have enough space for the tools in your chosen
installation location. The required disk usage for the @value{RELEASE}
is printed on the tape label; values for binaries only, sources only, or
both are shown.
@item
Load the @value{RELEASE} distribution tape into your tape drive. If
your machine doesn't have its own tape drive, you need to first extract
the software into a location accessible by both your host and the
machine that has a tape drive, and then install on your host. If there
is no shared disk, you can extract the software on the machine with the
tape drive and then transfer it over to your host. @ref{Installing with
a remote tape drive,,Installing with a remote tape drive}, for details.
@item
Extract the @code{Install} script off the tape using
@smallexample
tar xvf @var{non-rewinding-tapedev} Install
@end smallexample
@noindent
Remember to use a @emph{non--rewinding} tape drive!
@item
Run @code{Install}, using command-line options and arguments to specify
the details about your installation.
Default behavior installs both binaries and source under
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}} using the default
non--rewinding tape drive for your system (@pxref{U-Device names,,Device
names}).
@ifset cdk
For @dfn{native} toolchains only, a process called @dfn{fixincludes}
automatically makes copies of your system header files and alters them
to work with @sc{gcc} (your system's header files are @emph{not
changed}; @pxref{Why fixincludes,,Why convert system header files?}).
Finally, @code{Install} runs a simple test to make sure your
distribution was installed correctly.
@end ifset
@item
Make sure the program @code{send-pr} knows your Cygnus customer
identification code. You can install your customer ID by using the
program @w{@code{install-sid}} as follows:
@smallexample
eg$ cd /usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/H-@var{hosttype}/bin
eg$ install-sid @var{customer-ID}
@end smallexample
Contact Cygnus Support at @w{+1 415 903 1401} if you do not know your
customer ID.
@item
Create symbolic links so that your newly installed @value{RELEASE} is
easily accessible to developers, able to exist with other
@value{RELEASE} installations in a heterogeneous environment, and easily
updated when you install a new @value{RELEASE}.
@ifclear emacs
The nature of the links depends on where you installed the
@value{RELEASE} release, but they follow the example below. If you
installed into @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}}, the links are
@end ifclear
@iftex
@let@nonarrowing=@comment
@end iftex
@smallexample

You're done! The installation is now online; anyone who puts

@node Invoking Install
@unnumberedsubsec Invoking the @code{Install} script
There are two kinds of command-line arguments to @code{Install}, which
you can use to direct its operation:
@itemize @bullet
@item
@emph{What form of the programs} to install. You can choose between
binaries (argument @code{bin}) and source code (@code{source}). If you
don't specify either of these, @code{Install} assumes you want
@emph{both source and binaries}.
@item
@emph{What installation actions} to carry out. A full installation
involves up to
@ifset cdk
three
@end ifset
@ifclear cdk
two
@end ifclear
steps; @code{Install} has options to let you choose them explicitly.
The steps are
@enumerate
@item
extracting source from the tape (option @code{extract})
@ifset cdk
@item
writing copies of your system @samp{include} files, adjusted for portability
(needed for the compilation tools; option @code{fixincludes})
@end ifset
@item
running a simple test of the installed programs
(option @code{test})
@end enumerate
@ifset cdk
The last two of these actions (@code{fixincludes} and @code{test}) are
@emph{not needed for cross-development} configurations. (A
cross-development configuration runs on a @dfn{host}, but is meant to
develop code for another platform, the @dfn{target}. Cross development
tapes have @w{@samp{target = @var{target}}} on the tape label.)
@end ifset
These two actions can only run on your host. If you read the
tape on another machine, you must specify the @code{extract} option
explicitly, to indicate that you don't expect the
@ifset cdk
other two actions
@end ifset
@ifclear cdk
@code{test} action
@end ifclear
to run (and are aware of the need to run further installation steps on
your host).
@end itemize
@code{Install} also has two command line options: @samp{-tape} and
@w{@samp{-installdir}}. You can use these to adapt the installation to
your system.
@node Install options
@unnumberedsubsec @code{Install} options

@table @code
@item bin
@itemx source
By default, @code{Install} extracts both source and binaries. Instead
of relying on the default, you can use these options to specify exactly
what you want. You need to do this if you want @emph{only} binaries or
@emph{only} source.
@noindent
@code{Install} is designed to share files, wherever possible, between
installations for different hosts (of the same release). If you get
Cygnus release tapes configured for different hosts, there is no need to
do a binary-only install of some of the tapes to save space on a shared
file system; @code{Install} arranges the files so that all hosts
share the same source files. Documentation files are shared as well.
Note that it is faster to extract the source code only once if you are
installing the @value{RELEASE} distribution for more than one host.
See @ref{Links,,Links for easy access and updating}, for a discussion of
how to manage the directory structure used for this purpose.
@item extract
@ifset cdk
@itemx fixincludes
@end ifset
@itemx test
@ifset cdk
In a cross-development configuration, only the @samp{extract} step
is used.
In a native configuration---meant for developing software on the same
host where the @value{RELEASE} runs---a full installation includes up to
three things: (1) extracting software from the tape; (2) creating
@sc{ansi}-C conforming copies of your system's standard header files;
and (3) testing the installation. You can execute these steps
separately by specifying @samp{extract}, @samp{fixincludes}, or
@samp{test} on the @code{Install} command line.
In the native configuration, after you run @samp{extract},
@samp{fixincludes} is essential to the compiler. @samp{fixincludes}
@emph{does not change your system's original header files;}
@code{Install} writes the converted copies in a separate,
@code{gcc}-specific directory. @xref{Why fixincludes,,Why convert
system header files?}, for more discussion of the @samp{fixincludes}
step. @code{Install} only attempts these last two steps if you run
it on the host for which the binaries were compiled.
@end ifset
When you run @samp{extract}, @code{Install} creates a log file in
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/extraction.log}}.
@ifset cdk
When you run @samp{fixincludes}, @code{Install} creates a log file
in @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/fixincludes.log}}.
@end ifset
@samp{test} (used only for the native configuration) is a
confidence-building step, and doesn't actually change the state of the
installed software. The @samp{test} step may not make sense, depending
on what other options you've specified---if you install only source,
there's nothing to test.
@item -tape=@var{device}
@itemx -tape=@var{tarfile}
Specify the @emph{non--rewinding} device name for your tape drive as
@var{tape}.
If you extract the installation script and @var{tarfile} on some other
system, and transfer them to your host for installation, use the name of
the @code{tar} file instead of a device name with @samp{-tape}.
@xref{Installing with a remote tape drive,,Installing with a remote tape
drive}, for more discussion.
@item -installdir=@var{directory}
If you cannot or do not wish to install into @samp{/usr/cygnus}, use
this option to specify an alternate @var{directory} for placing your
software---but beware: the software is configured to go in
@samp{/usr/cygnus}, and you'll have to override or change that too.
@xref{U-Running,,Running the programs}.
@end table
If you specify a step that doesn't make sense, @code{Install} notices
the error, and exits (before doing anything at all) with an error
message, so you can try again.
@ifset cdk
@node Why fixincludes
@unnumberedsubsec Why convert system header files?
@quotation
The @samp{fixincludes} installation step described here @emph{applies
only to the native configuration} of the @value{RELEASE}---that is, only
if your tape is configured to develop software for the same @dfn{host}
on which it runs. If you have a cross-development tape, configured to
develop software for another machine (the @dfn{target}), the system
header files from your @dfn{host} are not needed for the @sc{gnu}
compilers. Cross-development tapes have @samp{target = @var{target}} on
the tape label.
@end quotation
For the native configuration, it is very important to run @samp{Install
fixincludes} (on @emph{each host} where you install the compiler
binaries).
When the @sc{ansi x3j11} committee finished developing a standard for
the C language, a few things that had worked one way in many traditional
C compilers ended up working differently in @sc{ansi} C. Most of these
changes are improvements. But some Unix header files still rely on the
old C meanings, in cases where the Unix vendor has not yet converted to
using an @sc{ansi} C compiler for the operating system itself.
@samp{Install fixincludes} does a mechanical translation that writes
@sc{ansi} C versions of some system header files into a new,
@sc{gcc}-specific include directory---@emph{your system's original
header files are not affected.}
The C header files supplied with SVr4 versions of Unix depend on a
questionable interpretation of the @sc{ansi} C standard: they test for a
non-@sc{ansi} environment by checking whether @w{@code{__STDC__}} is
defined as zero. The @sc{ansi} standard actually only specifies that
@code{__STDC__} be defined to 1; if it is defined to any other value,
the environment is not @sc{ansi} C compatible, and @sc{ansi} C says
nothing about what that value might be.
@sc{gcc} defines @code{__STDC__} to 1 when running with @samp{-ansi},
when it functions as an ``@sc{ansi} C superset'' compiler. (It also
sets @code{__STRICT_ANSI__} when it runs with the @samp{-pedantic}
option.) However, @sc{gcc} leaves @code{__STDC__} undefined when it is
not running as an @sc{ansi} C compiler.
Unfortunately for Solaris users, Solaris header files follow the SVr4
choice. Since @sc{gcc} never defines @code{__STDC__} as 0, the
distributed header files can leave out some declarations. (Look in
@file{/usr/include/time.h}, for example.)
Part of the installation process of the native compiler release is to
``fix'' the header files, such as @file{stdio.h}, on the host system to
remove @sc{ansi} incompatibilities. @samp{Install fixincludes} makes
copies of the system @file{include} files which have these nonstandard
features removed, so that @sc{gcc} can process them. These copies are
placed in a new, @sc{gcc}-specific @file{include} directory---@emph{your
system's original header files are not affected.} Once these fixed
header files are created, @sc{gcc} finds and uses them automatically.
Likewise, C++ programmers require C++-ready, @sc{ansi}-compatible
versions of the standard C header files. These used to be provided with
@code{libg++}, but were difficult to maintain due to the design
compromises (and outright ``kludges'') that were necessary to make these
work on all the systems we support.
We have recently introduced what we believe to be a better solution in
the form of a new shell script, @code{fixproto}. @code{fixproto}
analyzes all the header files in @file{/usr/include}, and adds any
missing standard @sc{ansi} and Posix.2 prototypes. The @w{@samp{extern
"C"}} braces needed to specify that these are C (not C++) functions are
also added as needed. It is run as part of the installation and/or
build of a native compiler. The resulting header files are also used
for C, with the result that the @samp{-Wimplicit} option for @code{gcc}
is much more useful.
The most obvious drawback to this solution is that the process of
``fixing'' the @file{include} files takes longer to run, so any
installation of a native compiler is noticeably slower than in previous
releases. Performance improvements will be made as part of a future
release.
If you don't run @code{fixincludes}, the @sc{gnu} C compiler can only
use the original system header files when you compile new C programs.
@emph{In some cases, the resulting programs will fail at run-time.}
@end ifset
@c end cdk
@c -------------------- Setting Up Symbolic Links -----------------------
@node Links
@unnumberedsubsec Links for easy access and updating
Once you've extracted the tools from the tape, they are installed into a
directory named @file{@var{installdir}/@value{RELEASETAG}}. We put the
release number in the directory name so that you can keep several
releases installed at the same time, if you wish. In order to simplify
administrative procedures (such as upgrades to future Cygnus Support
Progressive releases), we recommend that you establish a symbolic link
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus/progressive}} to this directory.
@smallexample
ln -s @var{installdir}/@value{RELEASETAG} @var{installdir}/progressive
@end smallexample
@noindent
For example, if you've installed in the default location under
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus}}:
@smallexample
ln -s /usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG} /usr/cygnus/progressive
@end smallexample
Directories of @dfn{machine-independent} files (source code and
documentation) are installed directly under @file{@value{RELEASETAG}}.
However, to accomodate binaries for multiple hosts in a single directory
structure, the binary files for your particular host type are in a
subdirectory @file{H-@var{hosttype}}. (@var{hosttype} indicates a
particular architecture, vendor and operating system.
@xref{Names,,Platform names}.)
This means that one more level of symbolic links is helpful, to allow
your users to keep the same execution path defined even if they
sometimes use binaries for one machine and sometimes for another. Even
if this doesn't apply now, you might want it in the future; establishing
these links now can save your users the trouble of changing all their
paths later. The idea is to build @w{@samp{/usr/progressive/bin}} on
each machine so that it points to the appropriate binary subdirectory
for each machine---for instance,
@w{@samp{/usr/cygnus/progressive/H-@var{hosttype}}.}
You may need super-user access again briefly to establish this link:
@smallexample
ln -s /usr/cygnus/progressive/H-@var{hosttype} /usr/progressive
@end smallexample
We recommend building these links as the last step in the installation
process. That way, users at your site only see software in
@file{/usr/progressive} when you're satisfied that the installation is
complete and successful.
@node Variances
@unnumberedsubsec Installation variances
Once you've extracted @code{Install} from your tape, you can tell
@code{Install} what software to install, what form of the programs you
need, and what installation steps to do. Here are some examples
covering common situations. For a full explanation of each possible
@code{Install} argument, see @ref{Invoking Install,,Invoking the
@code{Install} script}.
@code{Install}'s default tape drive is the non-rewinding tape drive for
your system (@pxref{U-Device names,,Device names}), which is right for
the most common cases. If your tape drive is different, you need to use
the @samp{-tape=/dev/@var{tape}} option; the examples show this option
for completeness. Remember to specify a @emph{non--rewinding} tape
device.

@unnumberedsubsubsec Installing with a remote tape drive
If your host doesn't have an appropriate tape drive, you may still be
able to install your software. Check with your system administrator to
see if another machine at your site has a tape drive you can use. If
so:
@table @emph
@item If a shared filesystem is available
between the two machines, and it has enough space, create
@samp{/usr/cygnus} on your host (the one where you want to install this
Progressive Release) as a symbolic link to a directory where the other
machine (the one with a tape drive) can write:
@smallexample
ln -s @var{shared} /usr/cygnus
@end smallexample
Run @code{Install} from the machine with a tape drive, using the
@samp{extract} argument and the @samp{-installdir} option:
@smallexample

@end ifset
@ifclear cdk
step (@code{test})
@end ifclear
must be run on your host. (If you forget, there's no great harm done:
@code{Install} notices that it can't carry out a full installation on
the wrong machine, and stops with an error message---then you can go
back and try again. When @code{Install} notices a problem like this, it
doesn't carry out @emph{any} action other than giving a helpful error
message).
@ifset cdk
Unless you are installing a cross-development tape (the tape label says
@samp{target = @var{target}} for cross configurations), the
@samp{fixincludes} part of the installation is essential. Please see
the full explanation (@pxref{Why fixincludes,,Why convert system header
files?}), if you're curious.
@end ifset

@emph{On a machine on your network with a tape drive:}
./Install extract -installdir=@var{shared}/cygnus @dots{}
@emph{On your host}

@end smallexample
@ifset cdk
If your copy of the @value{RELEASE} is configured @dfn{native} (to
develop software for the same type of machine where the @value{RELEASE}
itself runs), you'll have to run @samp{Install fixincludes} and
@samp{Install test} from your host afterwards.
@smallexample
@i{Native configurations only:}
./Install fixincludes test
@end smallexample
@end ifset
@ifclear cdk
Once the software is extracted, you can (optionally) perform a simple
sanity check with @w{@samp{Install test}} from your host.
@end ifclear
@item If some form of filetransfer is available
(such as @code{uucp}), read the second file on the tape using a system
utility (for instance, @code{dd} on Unix systems; see the system
documentation for the machine with a tape drive). There are two files
on the distribution tape; the first contains just the @code{Install}
script in uncompressed @code{tar} format, and the second is a compressed
@code{tar} format file containing the rest of the release.
Read both of these files separately, using something like the following:
@smallexample
eg$ tar xvf @var{non-rewinding-tape-device} Install
Install
eg$ dd if=@var{non-rewinding-tape-device} of=tarfile1 bs=62k
@emph{messages from dd@dots{}}
eg$ ls
Install
tarfile1
@end smallexample
@noindent
and then transfer them to your own machine using @code{uucp},
@code{ftp}, or another appropriate file transfer tool. (The blocksize
is set to 62k in this example simply to speed up the process; the tape
is written with a blocksize of 62k, but @code{dd} should be able to cope
with the task using its default blocksize.)
Then run @code{Install}, but use @samp{-tape=@var{tarfile}} to specify
the name of the installation file, instead of
@w{@samp{-tape=@var{device}}} as shown in the examples. In the simplest
case, for example (starting after you've transferred @code{Install} and
the tar file to your system):
@smallexample
eg$ ./Install -tape=tarfile1

@node Setting PATH
@unnumberedsubsec Setting @code{PATH}
Any user who wishes to run the tools in this distribution needs to make
sure her @code{PATH} environment variable can find the tools. Whether
you install in the default location:
@smallexample
/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}
@end smallexample
@noindent
or in an alternate location, you need to alter your @code{PATH}
environment variable to point toward the newly installed tools.
If you create the symbolic links we recommend (@pxref{Links,,Links for
easy access and updating}), users who want to run the
@value{RELEASE}---regardless of whether they need binaries for your
particular host, or for some other platform---can use settings like one
of the following in their initialization files.
This example shows @w{@file{/usr/progressive/bin}} as the final linked
installation directory. If you installed into a directory other than
this, substitute the actual directory for
@w{@file{/usr/progressive/bin}}.
@emph{For Bourne-compatible shells (@code{/bin/sh}, @code{bash}, or Korn
shell):}
@smallexample
PATH=/usr/progressive/bin:$PATH
export PATH
@end smallexample
@emph{For C shell:}
@smallexample
set path=(/usr/progressive/bin $path)
@end smallexample
@ifset cdk
@node GCC paths
@unnumberedsubsec @sc{gcc} paths
You can run the compiler @sc{gcc} without recompiling, even if you
install the distribution in an alternate location, by first setting the
environment variable @code{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX}. This variable specifies
where to find the executables, libraries, and data files used by the
compiler. Its value will be different depending on which set of
binaries you need to run. For example, if you install the tape
distribution under @file{/local} (instead of the default
@file{/usr/cygnus}), and you wish to run @sc{gcc} as a native compiler,
you could set @code{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX} as follows.
(@emph{Note:} The sample shows a @code{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX} which is split
across two lines only to fit on the printed page; it is meant to be
typed on one line.)
@emph{For shells compatible with Bourne shell (@code{/bin/sh},
@code{bash}, or Korn shell):}
@smallexample
eg$ GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/local/@value{RELEASETAG}/\
H-@var{hosttype}/lib/gcc-lib/
eg$ export GCC_EXEC_PREFIX
@end smallexample
@emph{For C shell:}
@smallexample
eg% setenv GCC_EXEC_PREFIX /local/@value{RELEASETAG}/\
H-@var{hosttype}/lib/gcc-lib/
@end smallexample
@noindent
@emph{Note: The trailing slash @samp{/} is important}. The @code{gcc}
program uses @code{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX} simply as a prefix. If you omit the
slash (or make any other mistakes in specifying the prefix), @code{gcc}
fails with a message beginning @samp{installation problem, cannot
exec@dots{}}.
@end ifset
@c end cdk
@node Online documentation paths
@unnumberedsubsec Online documentation paths
The standalone documentation browser @code{info} needs to know the
location of the documentation files in the distribution. The default
location, @file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/info}, is compiled into
@code{info}. If you install elsewhere, set the environment variable
@code{INFOPATH} to indicate the alternate location.
@ifset emacs
@strong{Warning:} This release cannot be installed in an alternate
location. Contact Cygnus Support if this is a problem for you.
@end ifset
For example, assuming you installed under @file{/local}:
@emph{For shells compatible with Bourne shell (@code{/bin/sh},
@code{bash}, or Korn shell):}
@smallexample
eg$ INFOPATH=/local/@value{RELEASETAG}/info
eg$ export INFOPATH
@end smallexample
@emph{For C shell:}
@smallexample
eg% setenv INFOPATH /local/@value{RELEASETAG}/info
@end smallexample
@noindent
If you built @file{progressive} as a symbolic link to
@file{@value{RELEASETAG}}, as recommended in @ref{Links,,Links for easy
access and updating}, then you could simply use
@file{/local/progressive/info} as the value of @code{INFOPATH} in the
examples above.
You should also ensure that your @code{man} command can pick up the
manual pages for these tools. Some @code{man} programs recognize a
@code{MANPATH} environment variable. If your @code{man} program is one
of these, users at your site can also include in their initialization
file lines like
@emph{For Bourne-compatible shells:}
@smallexample
eg$ MANPATH=/usr/cygnus/progressive/man:$MANPATH:/usr/man
eg$ export MANPATH
@end smallexample
@emph{For C shell:}
@smallexample
eg% setenv MANPATH /usr/cygnus/progressive/man:$MANPATH:/usr/man
@end smallexample
If your @code{man} program doesn't recognize @code{MANPATH}, you may
want to copy or link the files from
@file{@var{installdir}/progressive/man/man1} into your system's
@file{man/man1} directory.
@c -------------------- Troubleshooting ---------------------
@node U-Troubleshooting
@unnumberedsec Some Things that Might go Wrong
We've tried to make the installation of the @value{RELEASE} distribution
as painless as possible. Still, some complications may arise. Here are
suggestions for dealing with some of them.
@menu
* No customer ID for send-pr:: No customer ID for send-pr
* Limited space:: Not enough space
* No access:: No access to @file{/usr/cygnus}
* Install errors:: Error messages from @code{Install}

@end smallexample
@ifclear emacs
If you installed the @value{RELEASE} into a location other than the

installation.
@end ifclear
Contact Cygnus Support at @w{+1 415 903 1401} if you do
not know your customer ID.
@node Limited space
@unnumberedsubsec Not enough space
If you don't have enough space to install all of the tape distribution,
you can instead extract only the compiled code, or only the source.
You can easily extract these components independently of one another by
using the @samp{source} or @samp{bin} arguments to @code{Install}.
@xref{Invoking Install,,Invoking the @code{Install} script}.
@node No access
@unnumberedsubsec No access to @file{/usr/cygnus}
@ifclear emacs
If you can't sign on to an account with access to write in @file{/usr}
or @file{/usr/cygnus}, use the @samp{-installdir=@var{directory}} option
to @code{Install} to specify a different installation directory to which
you @emph{can} write. For example, if all the other installation
defaults are right, you can execute something like @samp{./Install
-tape=/dev/@var{tape} -installdir=@var{mydir}}. You'll need to either
override default paths for the pre-compiled tools, or else recompile the
software. @xref{U-Running,,Running the programs}, and @ref{Links,,Links

@node Install errors
@unnumberedsubsec Error messages from @code{Install}
The @code{Install} script checks for many errors and inconsistencies in
the way its arguments are used. The messages are meant to be
self-explanatory. Here is a list of a few messages where further
information might be useful:
@table @code
@item Can not read from TAPE device, @var{tape}
The error message ends with the tape device @code{Install} was trying to
use. Please check that it is the device you intended; possible causes
of trouble might include leaving off the @samp{/dev/} prefix at the
front of the device name. A typographical error in the device name
might also cause this problem.
If the problem is neither of these, perhaps your tape device can't read
our tape; @pxref{Installing with a remote tape drive,,Installing with a
remote tape drive}, for a discussion of how to use another machine's
tape drive, or contact Cygnus Support.
@item stdin: not in compressed format
You are probably not using the non--rewinding tape device. There are
two files on each tape. The first is a @code{tar} file containing the
@code{Install} script. The second is a compressed @code{tar} file
containing everything else. Without using the non--rewinding device,
there is no way to skip over the first file to begin reading the second.
@ifclear emacs
@item gcc: cannot exec cpp
If you've installed the binary distribution of the @value{RELEASE}
software in a non-standard location, remember to set your environment
variable @code{GCC_EXEC_PREFIX} accordingly. @xref{U-Running,,Running

These errors (the first covers anything that ends in @samp{This is a

other checks should have covered, or for unlikely situations that
require further diagnosis.

@unnumberedsec @sc{ms-dos} installation directories
You may install the software in any directory. The @code{INSTALL}
program assumes that you are installing in @code{C:\CYGNUS}; if you want
to change this, you may do so at the beginning of the installation
process.
If you are installing cross-development tools for more than one target,
you @emph{must} install them into different directories; otherwise, the
second installation overwrites the first. We recommend you use a
directory structure that has the target name built-in, such as:
@smallexample
C:\CYGNUS\A29KUDI\@dots{} @emph{AMD 29k cross-development toolkit}
C:\CYGNUS\M68KCOFF\@dots{} @emph{Motorola 68k cross-development toolkit}

@end smallexample
@noindent
If you use this paradigm, remember to type
@smallexample
@var{disk}:\CYGNUS\@var{target}\SETENV
@end smallexample
@noindent
to reset your environment every time you switch targets.
@node D-Disk space
@unnumberedsec Disk space
The total space required to extract and install binaries for all
programs in the Developer's Kit is from 10 to 16 megabytes, depending on
the target. The actual disk space required by the @value{RELEASE} is
printed on the disk label. The @code{INSTALL} program dynamically
compares the space available on your designated drive with the size of
the installation before starting the installation. If you do not have
enough space to install the binaries, the @code{INSTALL} program exits
with an error message before writing anything.
Note that if you're using a disk compression utility like @code{STACKER}
then the actual amount of disk space that you have available may be less
than reported. This is because the compression utilities usually report
the amount of free space available assuming that the data which would go
into it would be compressed at least as well as the data already on the
disk. This is important information if you're trying to install the
tools onto a compressed disk with only just enough room for the
installation. It could be that you run out of real disk space before
the installation is complete because the compression utility couldn't do
as good a job as it expected.
@node D-Memory req
@unnumberedsec @sc{ms-dos} memory requirements
We do not recommend using the cross-development kit with less than four
(4) megabytes of @sc{ram}.
We provide a @sc{ms-dos} extender with the cross-development kit for
@sc{ms-dos} which swaps programs to disk when @sc{ms-dos} runs out of
memory. To avoid excessive swapping you must have at least 2
megabytes of @sc{ram} to run @sc{g++} on a @sc{pc} with @sc{ms-dos}.
If you've got more than 2 megabytes, the extra memory can be used as a
disk cache to significantly improve performance.
@node D-Installing
@unnumberedsec Installation your @value{RELEASE}
We ship your Developer's Kit on a set of floppy disks. The
@code{INSTALL} program is included on Disk 1.
The files are stored on the floppies using Microsoft's @code{COMPRESS}
program. If you prefer, you can install files without using the
@code{INSTALL} program by just copying them into the right place on your
hard drive and running @code{EXPAND} on each file. Since the files are
stored on the floppy using their full name (not those marked as
compressed by using Microsoft's @file{.XX_} naming convention) you
@emph{must} use a temporary file.
@quotation
@emph{Warning!} If you have a program in your path called @code{EXPAND}
and it's not the one provided by Microsoft, then you should either
change your path to use only the Microsoft @code{EXPAND} program, or be
certain that your @code{EXPAND} program can decompress files which have
been compressed using Microsoft @code{COMPRESS}.
@end quotation
We show the system prompt as @samp{C:\>} for the local hard disk drive,
and @samp{A:\>} for the local 3.5'' floppy disk drive.

installation directory contains a blank copy of this form. To save
time, customize this form ahead of time with your Cygnus customer ID, as
described in the previous section.
The easiest way to report a bug is to fill in a copy of this form on
your computer and send it via Internet electronic mail to
@w{@samp{bugs@@cygnus.com}}. Otherwise, you can print the file
@file{SENDPR.TXT}, fill it in, and @sc{fax} the problem report to
Cygnus at @w{+1 415 903 0122} (Mountain View, California) or @w{+1 617
629 3010} (Somerville, Massachusetts). Contact Cygnus if you have any

The @sc{qic-24} tape included with your Developer's Kit contains source
code for all the programs.
@end ifclear
@ifset dosonly
The source code for all the programs in this distribution is available
on tape from Cygnus Support.
@end ifset
Most @sc{dos} systems cannot read this tape; you probably need to find a
Unix system to read it.
You need about 71 megabytes of free disk space to hold the source code.
To extract the source code into the current working directory on most
Unix machines, execute a command like this:
@smallexample
dd if=@var{tapedev} | compress -d | tar xvf -
@end smallexample
@var{tapedev} stands for the device name for the tape drive. For
example, on most Sun workstations, the device name for the @sc{qic-24}
tape drive is @file{/dev/rst8}. Contact your system administrator for
the correct tape device for your system.
Please contact Cygnus Support at @w{+1 415 903 1401} if you would like

@appendix Cross-development environment
Using the Developer's Kit in one of the cross-development configurations
usually requires some attention to setting up the target environment.
(A cross-development configuration is used for developing software to
run on a different machine (the @dfn{target}) from the development tools
themselves (which run on the @dfn{host})---for example, you might use a
@sc{sparc}station to generate and debug code for an @sc{amd} 29K-based
board.)
To allow our tools to work with your target environment (except for
real-time operating systems, which provide full operating system
support), you need to set up:
@itemize @bullet
@item
the C run-time environment (described below).
@item
@dfn{stubs}, or minimal versions of operating system subroutines for the
C subroutine library. @xref{syscalls,,System Calls,libc.info, The
Cygnus C Support Library}.
@item
a connection to the debugger. @xref{Remote,,Remote Debugging,gdb.info,
Debugging with GDB}.
@end itemize
@subheading The C Run-Time Environment (@code{crt0})
To link and run C or C++ programs, you need to define a small module
(usually written in assembler as @file{crt0.s}) that makes sure the
hardware is initialized for C conventions before calling @code{main}.
There are some examples of @file{crt0.s} code (along with examples of
system call stub code) available in the source code for your Developer's
Kit. Look in the directories under:
@smallexample
@var{installdir}/@value{RELEASETAG}/src/newlib/libc/sys
@end smallexample
@noindent
(@var{installdir} refers to your installation directory, by default
@file{/usr/cygnus}.) For example, look in @file{@dots{}/sys/h8300hms}
for Hitachi @sc{h8/300} bare boards, or in @file{@dots{}/sys/sparclite}
for the Fujitsu @w{SPARClite} board. More examples are available under
the directory:
@smallexample
@var{installdir}/@value{RELEASETAG}/src/newlib/stub
@end smallexample
To write your own @file{crt0.s}, you need this information about
your target:
@itemize @bullet
@item
A memory map. What memory is available, and where?
@item
Which way does the stack grow?
@item
What output format do you use?
@end itemize
At a minimum, your @file{crt0.s} must do these things:
@enumerate 1
@item
Define the symbol @code{start} (@samp{_start} in assembler code).
Execution begins at this symbol.
@item
Set up the stack pointer @samp{sp}. It is largely up to you to choose
where to store your stack within the constraints of your target's memory
map. Perhaps the simplest choice is to choose a fixed-size area
somewhere in the uninitialized-data section (often called @samp{bss}).
Remember that whether you choose the low address or the high address in
this area depends on the direction your stack grows.
@item
Initialize all memory in the uninitialized-data (@samp{bss}) section to
zero. The easiest way to do this is with the help of a linker script
(@pxref{Commands,,Command Language,ld.info, Using LD; the GNU linker}).
Use a linker script to define symbols such as @samp{bss_start} and
@samp{bss_end} to record the boundaries of this section; then you can
use a @samp{for} loop to initialize all memory between them in
@file{crt0.s}.
@item
Call @code{main}. Nothing else will!
@end enumerate
@noindent
A more complete @file{crt0.s} might also do the following:
@enumerate 5
@item
Define an @samp{_exit} subroutine (this is the C name; in your assembler
code, use the label @w{@samp{__exit}}, with two leading underbars). Its
precise behavior depends on the details of your system, and on your
choice. Possibilities include trapping back to the boot monitor, if
there is one; or to the loader, if there is no monitor; or even back to
the symbol @code{start}.
@item
If your target has no monitor to mediate communications with the
debugger, you must set up the hardware exception handler in
@file{crt0.s}. @xref{Remote Serial,,The @sc{gdb} remote serial
protocol,gdb.info, Debugging with GDB}, for details on how to use the
@sc{gdb} generic remote-target facilities for this purpose.
@item
Perform other hardware-dependent initialization; for example,
initializing an @sc{mmu} or an auxiliary floating-point chip.
@ignore
@item
On some systems, copy microcode from ROM to RAM; see your target
manufacturer's hardware manual if you're not certain whether this is
needed.
@end ignore
@item
Define low-level input and output subroutines. For example, @file{crt0.s}
is a convenient place to define the minimal assembly-level routines
described in @ref{syscalls,,System Calls,libc.info, The Cygnus C Support
Library}.
@end enumerate
@end ifset
@c end cdk
@ignore

@appendix Installation step by step
This section contains step-by-step examples of the most common
Unix installation scenarios. For more information on each step, see
@ref{U-Installing,,Installing your @value{RELEASE}}. Please contact
Cygnus Support if you have any problems with the installation.
The most basic installation:
@itemize @bullet
@item
You are installing on a standard Unix platform (@pxref{Names,,Platform
Names})
@item
Your Unix machine has its own device which corresponds to your
distribution media (e.g., a @sc{qic}-24 tape drive)
@item
You're willing to use the installation directory @file{/usr/cygnus}
@item
You have enough disk space in @file{/usr/cygnus} (@pxref{U-Disk
space,,Required Disk Space})
@end itemize
@noindent
is described in @ref{UnixBrief,,Installing in brief for Unix systems}.
Other alternatives are listed below. For these examples, there exists a
local-area network consisting of:
@table @code
@item soleil
Sun @sc{sparc}station running SunOS 4.1.3, @emph{no} local tape drive;
has local partitions @file{/house} and @file{/home}, as well as
@file{/usr}, etc.
@item monde
Sun @sc{sparc}station running SunOS 4.1.3, with a local tape drive;
mounts @file{/house} and @file{/home} from @code{soleil}, has local
partitions @file{/usr} et al.
@item bloodshot
@sc{sgi} Iris running Irix 4, no local tape drive; mounts @file{/house}
and @file{/home} has local partitions @file{/usr} et al.

@enumerate 1
@item
First, decide where to install the software. This example shows a
default installation in @w{@file{/usr/cygnus}}.
@item
Create the installation directory, if it doesn't already exist, and make
sure it's publicly accessible so @code{Install} can write there.
@smallexample
eg$ su root
# mkdir /usr/cygnus
# chmod 777 /usr/cygnus
# exit
@end smallexample
@item
Make sure you have enough space for the tools in your chosen
installation location.
@smallexample
eg$ df /usr/cygnus
@dots{hi}
@end smallexample
@item
Load the @value{RELEASE} distribution tape into the drive. For this
example, our machine @code{soleil} doesn't have its own tape drive. We
load the tape into the drive on @code{monde} (also a Sun4). We need to
first extract the software into a location accessible by both our host
(@code{soleil}) and the machine that has a tape drive (@code{monde}),
and then install on @code{soleil}.
@item
Extract the @code{Install} script off the tape using a non--rewinding
tape device:
@smallexample
cd /tmp
tar xvf /dev/ Install
@end smallexample
@noindent
Remember to use a @emph{non--rewinding} tape drive!
@item
Run @code{Install}, using command-line options and arguments to specify
the details about your installation.
Default behavior installs both binaries and source under
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}} using the default
non--rewinding tape drive for your system (@pxref{U-Device names,,Device
names}). For @dfn{native} toolchains only, a process called
@dfn{fixincludes} automatically makes copies of your system header files
and alters them to work with @sc{gcc} (your system's header files are
@emph{not changed}; @pxref{Why fixincludes,,Why convert system header
files?}). Finally, @code{Install} runs a simple test to make sure your
distribution was installed correctly.
@item
Make sure the program @code{send-pr} knows your Cygnus customer
identification code. You can install your customer ID by using the
program @w{@code{install-sid}} as follows:
@smallexample
eg$ cd /usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/H-@var{hosttype}/bin
eg$ install-sid @var{customer-ID}
@end smallexample
Contact Cygnus Support at @w{+1 415 903 1401} if you do not know your
customer ID.
@item
Create symbolic links so that your newly installed @value{RELEASE} is
easily accessible to developers, able to exist with other
@value{RELEASE} installations in a heterogeneous environment, and easily
updated when you install a new @value{RELEASE}.
The nature of the links depends on where you installed the
@value{RELEASE}, but they follow the example below. If you installed
into @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}}, the links are
@iftex
@let@nonarrowing=@comment
@end iftex
@smallexample

Run @code{Install}, using command-line options and arguments to specify
the details about your installation.
Default behavior installs both binaries and source under
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}} using the default
non--rewinding tape drive for your system (@pxref{U-Device names,,Device
names}). For @dfn{native} toolchains only, a process called
@dfn{fixincludes} automatically makes copies of your system header files
and alters them to work with @sc{gcc} (your system's header files are
@emph{not changed}; @pxref{Why fixincludes,,Why convert system header
files?}). Finally, @code{Install} runs a simple test to make sure your
distribution was installed correctly.
@item
Make sure the program @code{send-pr} knows your Cygnus customer
identification code. You can install your customer ID by using the
program @w{@code{install-sid}} as follows:
@smallexample
eg$ cd /usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}/H-@var{hosttype}/bin
eg$ install-sid @var{customer-ID}
@end smallexample
Contact Cygnus Support at @w{+1 415 903 1401} if you do not know your
customer ID.
@item
Create symbolic links so that your newly installed @value{RELEASE} is
easily accessible to developers, able to exist with other
@value{RELEASE} installations in a heterogeneous environment, and easily
updated when you install a new @value{RELEASE}.
The nature of the links depends on where you installed the
@value{RELEASE}, but they follow the example below. If you installed
into @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}}, the links are
@iftex
@let@nonarrowing=@comment
@end iftex
@smallexample
ln -s /usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG} /usr/cygnus/progressive
ln -s /usr/cygnus/progressive/H-@var{hosttype} /usr/progressive
@end smallexample
@iftex
@let@nonarrowing=@relax

You're done! The installation is now online; anyone who puts

@end smallexample
in their path has access to the toolkit.

If you had to change the permission status on the directory
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus}}, be sure to revert the change. See your system
administrator for the proper permissions at your site.

First, decide where to install the software. The default installation
location is @w{@file{/usr/cygnus/@value{RELEASETAG}}}. (To use the
software conveniently from elsewhere, you may want to reconfigure and
recompile from source; see @ref{U-Running,,Running the programs}.)
If you don't wish to install in @w{@file{/usr/cygnus}} but can create a
symbolic link to it from another location, or if you don't wish to
install into @file{/usr} at all, see @ref{Installing in a nonstandard
location,,Installing in a nonstandard location}.
@item
Create the installation directory, if it doesn't already exist, and make
sure it's publicly accessible so @code{Install} can write there. For
example, if you use the default installation directory of
@w{@file{/usr/cygnus}}:
@smallexample
eg$ su root @emph{(enter root password to write in @file{/usr})}
# mkdir /usr/cygnus @emph{(ignore ``File exists'' error if any)}
# chmod 777 /usr/cygnus
# exit @emph{(root access not needed beyond this)}
@end smallexample
@item
Make sure you have enough space for the tools in your chosen
installation location. The required disk usage for the @value{RELEASE}
is printed on the tape label; values for binaries only, sources only, or
both are shown.
@item
Load the @value{RELEASE} distribution tape into your tape drive. If
your machine doesn't have its own tape drive, you need to first extract
the software into a location accessible by both your host and the
machine that has a tape drive, and then install on your host. If there
is no shared disk, you can extract the software on the machine with the
tape drive and then transfer it over to your host. @ref{Installing with
a remote tape drive,,Installing with a remote tape drive}, for details.
