Before You Begin |
This installation guide gives instructions for how to perform the following tasks:
This book is designed for system administrators who install software and for developers who use software development applications. Experience with the Linux operating system and commands is required.

The Sun Studio software and its man pages are not installed into /usr/bin/ and /usr/share/man directories. To access the software, you must have your PATH environment variable set correctly (see Accessing the Software). To access the man pages, you must have your MANPATH environment variable set correctly (see Accessing the Man Pages).
For more information about the PATH variable, see the csh(1), sh(1), ksh(1), and bash(1) man pages. For more information about the MANPATH variable, see the man(1) man page.
Use the steps below to determine whether you need to change your PATH variable to access the software.
1. Display the current value of the PATH variable by typing the following at a command prompt.
2. Review the output to find a string of paths that contain /opt/sun/sunstudio11/bin/.
If you find the path, your PATH variable is already set to access the software. If you do not find the path, set your PATH environment variable by following the instructions in the next procedure.
Add the following path to your PATH environment variable. If you have previously installed Forte Developer software, Sun ONE Studio software, or another release of Sun Studio software, add the following path before the paths to those installations.
Use the following steps to determine whether you need to change your MANPATH variable to access the man pages.
1. Request the dbx man page by typing the following at a command prompt.
If the dbx(1) man page cannot be found or if the man page displayed is not for the current version of the software, follow the instructions in the next procedure for setting your MANPATH environment variable.
Add the following path to your MANPATH environment variable.
The Sun Studio integrated development environment (IDE) provides modules for creating, editing, building, debugging, and analyzing the performance of a C, C++, or Fortran application.
The command to start the IDE is sunstudio. For details on this command, see the sunstudio(1) man page.
The correct operation of the IDE depends on the IDE being able to find the core platform. The sunstudio command looks for the core platform in two locations:
If the core platform is not installed or mounted to either of the locations where the sunstudio command looks for it, then each user on a client system must set the environment variable SPRO_NETBEANS_HOME to the location where the core platform is installed or mounted (/installation_directory/netbeans/3.5V11).
Each user of the IDE also must add /installation_directory/sunstudio11/bin to their $PATH in front of the path to any other release of Forte Developer software, Sun ONE Studio software, or Sun Studio software.
The path /installation_directory/netbeans/3.5V11/bin should not be added to the user's $PATH.
You can access the documentation at the following locations:
If your software is not installed in the /opt directory, ask your system administrator for the equivalent path on your system.
The docs.sun.com web site (http://docs.sun.com) enables you to read, print, and buy Sun Microsystems manuals through the Internet. If you cannot find a manual, see the documentation index that is installed with the software on your local system or network.
The documentation is provided in accessible formats that are readable by assistive technologies for users with disabilities. You can find accessible versions of documentation as described in the following table. If your software is not installed in the /opt directory, ask your system administrator for the equivalent path on your system.
