Command-Line Options for the Command-Line Installer

The following command-line options are valid when you are starting the developerstudio.sh command-line installer.

--create-symlinks
Create symbolic links in the /usr/bin and /usr/share/man directories to the Oracle Developer Studio 12.5 software and man pages.
--current-zone-only
Install only in the current zone. When you run the installer in the global zone, this option makes the installed product visible only in that zone.
--extract-installation-data directory
Extract installation data, do not perform installation.
--generate-desktop-distr
Generate a zip file containing a distribution of the IDE (and the Code Analyzer, if you are installing it) configured for a desktop operating system. The zip file called -desktop-distribution.zip is located in the lib directory of your Oracle Developer Studio installation.
--help
Display information on the options.
--ignore-arch
Disable system architecture checking (Oracle Solaris based systems only)
--install-components component_name,component_name,...
Install only the specified components. The valid component_names are: c-and-cpp-compilers, code-analyzer-tool, dbx-debugger, dbxtool, dmake, fortran-compiler, oic, performance-and-thread-analysis-tools, performance-library, studio-ide, japanese-localization, and simplified-chinese-localization.
--installation-location directory
Install Oracle Developer Studio software in the specified directory instead of in the default installation directory /opt.
--javahome directory
Use the JDK in directory when running the installer. This option is needed when the installer cannot locate a JDK in a standard location on your system, and you need to point it to one.
--libraries-only
Perform runtime libraries only installation.
--locale locale
Override the default locale for the installer with the specified locale. Valid locales are en (English), ja (Japanese), and zh (Simplified Chinese).
--nfs-server
Use NFS server installation mode, in which the installer does not check the server for the required Oracle Solaris patches or create symbolic links in the /usr/bin directory.
--non-interactive
Start the installer in command-line mode.
--print-components-description
Lists the component names you can use with the -install-components option
--silent-logs-dir directory
Write the installer log file to the specified directory silently.
--state state_file .xml
Play back the state file recorded by the graphical installer to silently repeat an installation session. This option lets you install a subset of the product components in command-line mode.
--tempdir directory
By default, the installer extracts temporary data into the /tmp directory. If there is not sufficient space in the /tmp directory on your system, you can specify another directory for the installer to use.
--use-alternative-root directory
Install in the specified root directory instead of the default root directory /. Specify the full path of the directory to use as the alternate root. This option is valid only on systems running Oracle Solaris 10.
--verbose
Write verbose output to the console.
