Determining Which Installer You Have

Before running the package installer, it is important to know which version of the installer you have. The English-only version of the installer installs the English-only release of the Sun Studio 12 Update 1 software. The multi-language version installs the multi-language release of the software. The two versions provide slightly different options, so be sure that you know which one you have before you start it from the command line.

To determine which installer you have, in the directory that contains the installer, type:

./SunStudio12u1-OS-platform-packages.sh --help

If you have the multi-language installer, the first line of the help output is:

Sun Studio 12 Update 1 multi-language installer

If you have the English-only installer, the line above is not included in the help output.
