How to install SCSL runtime library


 1. login as root

 2. make a working directory
      cd /usr/tmp
      mkdir scsl_dir

 3. copy sgi_scsl13_lib.tgz into /usr/tmp/scsl_dir
      cp sgi_scsl13_lib.tgz /usr/tmp/scsl_dir

 4. The file "sgi_scsl_13_lib.tgz" is tarred and gzipped file.  To extract the files:
      gunzip sgi_scsl13_lib.tgz   ---> sgi_scsl13_lib.tar
      tar xvf sgi_scsl13_lib.tar

    you will find out 6 files.
     (scsl, scsl.hdr, scsl.idb, scsl.man, scsl.sw32, scsl.sw64)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Install SCSL in the default location if you have root privilegies.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 5. run "inst" for installation of SGI software
    /usr/sbin/inst

    you get a menu for installation.
    (like this:

*****************************************************************************
    1. from [source ...]            Specify location of software to be installed
    2. open [source ...]            Specify additional software locations
    3. close [source ...]           Close a software distribution location
    5. go                           Perform software installation and removal now
    .....
    6. install [keywords] [names]   Select subsystems to be installed
    .....
    9. step [keywords] [names]      Interactive mode for install/remove/keep
    .....
   14. quit                         Terminate software installation

******************************************************************************

 6. select 1 (from [source ...] )

 7. type "/usr/tmp/scsl_dir"  to give the path of SCSL image.
    (eg.Install software from: [CDROM/dist] /usr/tmp/scsl_dir)

 8. type "inst *"  (eg.   Inst> inst * )

 9. type "go"      (eg.   Inst> go     )

10. type "quit"    (eg.   Inst> quit   )

11. rm -r /usr/tmp/scsl_dir

    Done.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Install SCSL in a local location if you don't have root privilegies.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 5. create a local directory
    For example: mkdir ~/lib

 6. inst -r ~/lib -f /usr/tmp/scsl_dir -Vrulesoverride:on -A

 NOTE: -Vrulesoverride:on is needed to install due to the fact that
        ~/lib is a local directory containing only the SCSL software.
       The -Vrulesoverride:on will turn off the verification of 
       prequisite sub-systems.

 7. rm -r /usr/tmp/scsl_dir

 8. Once the software is installed, you must enter the following commands
    in your Unix shell window to set the the path where the linker will
    look for the runtime libraries first. In the previous example, 
    libscs[_mp].so will be in /usr/people/lstc/usr/lib[32,64]

    * For c-shell, run the following commands in a Unix shell window:
      # setenv LD_LIBRARY64_PATH /usr/people/lstc/usr/lib64
      # setenv LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH /usr/people/lstc/usr/lib32

 Miscellaneous SCSL information:

 A. After you have installed SCSL to the alternate location, you may view 
    the product man pages by typing in the following in a Unix Shell window:

    * For c-shell
      # setenv MANPATH /usr/people/lstc/usr/share/catman
      # man intro_scsl
      # unsetenv -v MANPATH

 B. In order to view the SCSL release notes from their alternately installed
    location, you will need to enter the following commands in a Unix Shell
    window:

    * For c-shell
      # setenv RELNOTESPATH /usr/people/lstc/usr/relnotes
      # relnotes scsl
      # unsetenv -v RELNOTESPATH

 NOTE: If you neglect to run the unsetenv command above, you will not
       be able to view relnotes for other products installed on your
       system in the default relnotes location.
