UNIX Implementation Details

5.1 Installation

To install the demo version of the SDK, copy the tgz file corresponding to your platform (available on the web site) to a local directory of your choice. Decompress the tgz file and then extract from the resulting tar file as follows:

gunzip tgzfile
tar xvf tarfile

The installation directory should contain the following directory structure:

Directory	Description
/redist	Contains a working copy of the UNIX version of the technology.
/sdk/common	Contains the C include files needed to build or rebuild the technology.
/sdk/demo	Contains the compiled executables of the sample applications.
/sdk/resource	Contains localization resource files. For details, see Changing Resources.
/sdk/samplecode	Contains a subdirectory holding the source code for a sample application. For details, see Sample Applications.
/sdk/samplefiles	Contains sample input files authored in a variety of popular graphics, word processor, compression, spreadsheet and presentation applications, designed to exercise Search Export.

5.1.1 NSF Support

Notes Storage Format (NSF) files are produced by the Lotus Notes Client or the Lotus Domino server. The NSF filter is the only Outside In filter that requires the native application to be present to filter the input documents. Due to integration with an outside application, NSF support will not work with redirected I/O nor will it work when an NSF file is embedded in another file. Lotus Domino version 8 must be installed on the same machine as OIT. The NSF filter is currently only supported on the Win32, Win x86-64, Linux x86-32, and Solaris Sparc 32 platforms. SCCOPT_LOTUSNOTESDIRECTORY is a Windows-only option and is ignored on Unix.

Additional steps must be taken to prepare the system. It is necessary to know the name of the directory in which Lotus Domino has been installed. On Linux, this default directory is /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux. On Solaris, it is /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/sunspa.

In the Lotus Domino directory, check for the existence of a file called "notes.ini". If the file "notes.ini" does not exist, create it in that directory and ensure that it contains the following single line:

[Notes]
Add the Lotus Domino directory to the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
Set the environment variable $Notes_ExecDirectory to the Lotus Domino directory.

5.2 Libraries and Structure

On UNIX platforms the Oracle Outside In products are delivered with a set of shared libraries. All libraries should be installed to a single directory. Depending upon your application, you may also need to add that directory to the system's runtime search path. For more information, see Environment Variables.

The following is a brief description of the included libraries and support files. In instances where a file extension is listed as .*, the file extension varies for each UNIX platform (sl on HP-UX, so on Linux and Solaris).

5.2.1 API Libraries

These libraries implement the API. They should be linked with the developer's application.

5.2.4 Filter and Export Filter Libraries

The following libraries are used for filtering.

libex_gdsf must be linked with libsc_img.* at compile time. This forces the filter to be dependent on libsc_img.* at runtime, even though that module may not be used directly. If you want to reduce your application's physical footprint, you can experiment with unlinking libsc_img.*.

5.3 The Basics

Sample applications are provided with the SDK. These applications demonstrate most of the concepts described in this manual. For a complete description of the sample applications, see Sample Applications.

5.3.1 What You Need in Your Source Code

Any source code that uses this product should #include the file sccex.h and #define UNIX. For example, a 32-bit UNIX application might have a source file with the following lines:

#define UNIX
#include <sccex.h>

A 64-bit UNIX application might have a source file with the following lines:

#define UNIX
#define UNIX_64
#include <sccex.h>

5.3.2 Information Storage

This software is based on the Oracle Outside In Viewer Technology (or simply "Viewer Technology"). A file of default options is always created, and a list of available filters and a list of available display engines are also built by the technology, usually the first time the product runs (for UNIX implementations). You do not need to ship these lists with your application.

Lists are stored in the $HOME/.oit directory. If the $HOME environment variable is not set, the files are put in the same directory as the Oracle Outside In Technology. If a /.oit directory does not exist in the user's $HOME directory, the .oit directory is created automatically by the technology. The files are automatically regenerated if corrupted or deleted.

The files are:

*.f: Filter lists
*.d: Display engine list
*.opt: Persistent options

The technology does not actually use the list of default options created by the Viewer Technology.

The filenames are intended to be unique enough to avoid conflict for any combination of machine name and install directory. This is intended to prevent problems with version conflicts when multiple versions of the Viewer Technology and/or other Viewer Technology-based products are installed on a single system. The filenames are built from an 11-character string derived from the directory the Oracle Outside In Technology resides in and the name of the machine it is being run on. The string is generated by code derived from the RSA Data Security, Inc. MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm.

The products still function if these files cannot be created for some reason. In that situation, however, significant performance degradation should be expected.

5.4 Character Sets

The strings passed in the UNIX API are ISO8859-1 by default.

To optimize performance on systems that do not require DBCS support, a second character mapping bin file, that does not contain any of the DBCS pages, is now included. The second bin file gives additional performance benefits for English documents, but cannot handle DBCS documents. To use the new bin file, replace the cmmap000.bin with the new bin file, cmmap000.sbc. For clarity, a copy of the cmmap000.bin file (cmmap000.dbc) is also included. Both cmmap000.sbc and cmmap000.dbc are located in the /sdk/common directory of the technology.

Note:

All of the Search Export flavors produce most text in UTF-8 encoded Unicode. Two exceptions to this are the characters in <unmapped> elements and XMP metadata (which is passed through without character mapping being applied).

5.5 Runtime Considerations

The following is information to consider during run-time.

5.5.1 X Server Requirement

Note:

The X Server requirement can be eliminated by setting the SCCOPT_RENDERING_PREFER_OIT option to TRUE. When using Search Export, this option is valid when the product is set to produce PageML output.

For Search Export, a X-Server is only necessary when using the PageML format. Access to a running X Windows server and the presence of Motif (or LessTif on Linux) are required to convert from vector formats on UNIX systems. Examples of vector graphics files include CAD drawings and presentation files such as Power Point 97 files.

A runtime check for the presence of X libraries is performed to accommodate system with and without available X servers. This check looks on the system-specific library path variable for the X libraries. If the X libraries are not found, this product does not perform vector graphics conversion.

Be sure to set the $DISPLAY environment variable before running this product when non-raster/vector graphic conversion is needed. This is especially important to remember in situations such as CGI programs that start with a limited environment.

For example, when running the technology from a remote session, setting DISPLAY=:0.0 tells the system to use the X Windows server on the console.

5.5.2 OLE2 Objects

Some documents that the developer is attempting to convert may contain embedded OLE2 objects. There are platform-dependent limits on what the technology can do with OLE2 objects. However, Oracle Outside In attempts to take advantage of the fact that some documents accompany an OLE2 embedding with a graphic "snapshot," in the form of a Windows metafile.

On all platforms, when a metafile snapshot is available, the technology uses it to convert the object. When a metafile snapshot is not available on UNIX platforms, the technology is unable to convert the OLE2 object.

5.5.3 Signal Handling

These products trap and handle the following signals:

SIGABRT
SIGBUS
SIGFPE
SIGILL
SIGINT
SIGSEGV
SIGTERM

Developers who wish to override our default handling of these signals should set up their own signal handlers. This may be safely done after the developer's application has called DAInitEx().

Note:

The Java Native Interface (JNI) allows Java code to call and be called by native code (C/C++ in the case of OIT). You may run into problems if Java isn't allowed to handle signals and forward them to OIT. If OIT catches the signals and forwards them to Java, the JVMs will sometimes crash. OIT installs signal handlers when DAInitEx() is called, so if you call OIT after the JVM is created, you will need to use libjsig. Refer here for more information:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/index-137495.html

5.5.4 Runtime Search Path and $ORIGIN

Libraries and sample applications are all built with the $ORIGIN variable as part of the binaries' runtime search path. This means that at runtime, OIT libraries will automatically look in the directory they were loaded from to find their dependent libraries. You don't necessarily need to include the technology directory in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH or SHLIB_PATH.

As an example, an application that resides in the same directory as the OIT libraries and includes $ORIGIN in its runtime search path will have its dependent OIT libraries found automatically. You will still need to include the technology directory in your linker's search path at link time using something like -L and possibly -rpath-link.

Another example is an application that loads OIT libraries from a known directory. The loading of the first OIT library will locate the dependent libraries.

Note:

This feature does not work on AIX and FreeBSD.

5.6 Environment Variables

Several environment variables may be used at run time. Following is a short summary of those variables and their usage.

Variable	Description
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH (HP-UX Itanium 64, Linux, Solaris) $SHLIB_PATH $LIBPATH (AIX, iSeries)	These variables help your system's dynamic loader locate objects at runtime. If you have problems with libraries failing to load, try adding the path to the Oracle Outside In libraries to the appropriate environment variable. See your system's manual for the dynamic loader and its configuration for details. Note that for products that have a 64-bit PA/RISC, 64-bit Solaris and Linux PPC/PPC64 distributable, they will also go under $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
$GDFONTPATH	This variable must be set. It includes one or more paths to fonts for use with Oracle Outside In's internal graphics rendering code.
$HOME	Must be set to allow the system to write the option, filter and display engine lists. For details, see Information Storage.

Variable

Description

$LD_LIBRARY_PATH (HP-UX Itanium 64, Linux, Solaris)

$SHLIB_PATH

$LIBPATH (AIX, iSeries)

These variables help your system's dynamic loader locate objects at runtime. If you have problems with libraries failing to load, try adding the path to the Oracle Outside In libraries to the appropriate environment variable. See your system's manual for the dynamic loader and its configuration for details.

Note that for products that have a 64-bit PA/RISC, 64-bit Solaris and Linux PPC/PPC64 distributable, they will also go under $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

$GDFONTPATH

This variable must be set. It includes one or more paths to fonts for use with Oracle Outside In's internal graphics rendering code.

$HOME

Must be set to allow the system to write the option, filter and display engine lists. For details, see Information Storage.

5.7 Changing Resources

All of the strings used in the UNIX versions of Oracle Outside In products are contained in the lodlgstr.h file. This file, located in the resource directory, can be modified for internationalization and other purposes. Everything necessary to rebuild the resource library to use the modified source file is included with the SDK.

In addition to lodlgstr.h, the scclo.o object file is provided. This is necessary for the linking phase of the build. A makefile has also been provided for building the library. The makefile allows building on all of the UNIX platforms supported by Oracle Outside In. It may be necessary to make minor modifications to the makefile so the system header files and libraries can be found for compiling and linking.

Standard INCLUDE and LIB make variables are defined for each platform in the makefile. Edit these variables to point to the header files and libraries on your particular system. Other make variables are:

TECHINCLUDE: May need to be edited to point to the location of the Oracle Outside In /common header files supplied with the SDK.
BUILDDIR: May need to be edited to point to the location of the makefile, lodlgstr.h, and scclo.o (which should all be in the same directory).

After these variables are set, change to the build directory and type make. The libsc_lo resource library is built and placed in the appropriate platform-specific directory. To use this library, copy it into the directory where the Oracle Outside In product is stored and the new, modified resource strings are used by the technology.

Menu constants are included in lomenu.h in the common directory.

5.8 HP-UX Compiling and Linking

The libsc_ex.so and libsc_da.so libraries are the only ones that must be linked with your application. They can be loaded when your application starts by linking them directly at compile time or they can be loaded dynamically by your application using library load functions (for example, shl_load).

The shared libraries are dependent on the presence of the X libraries Xm, Xt and X11 if vector graphics support is required. It is the application developer's responsibility to ensure that the needed functions from these libraries are present before the product libraries are used.

The following are example command lines used to compile the sample application exsimple from the /sdk/samplecode/unix directory. The command lines are separated into sections for HP-UX and HP-UX on Itanium (which requires GCC). This command line is only an example. The actual command line required on the developer's system may vary. The example assumes that the include and library file search paths for the technology libraries and any required X libraries are set correctly. If they are not set correctly, the search paths for the include and/or library files must be explicitly specified via the -I include file path and/or -L library file path options, respectively, so that the compiler and linker can locate all required files.

5.8.1 HP-UX on RISC

Note:

HP-UX on RISC is not supported release 8.5.6 onward.

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c +DAportable -Ae -I/usr/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/lib -lsc_ex -lsc_da -Wl,+s,+b,'$ORIGIN'

5.8.2 HP-UX on RISC (64 bit)

Note:

HP-UX on RISC (64 bit) is not supported release 8.5.6 onward.

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c +DD64 -I/usr/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/lib/pa20_64 -DUNIX_64 -lsc_ex -lsc_da -Wl,+s,+b,'$ORIGIN'

5.8.3 HP-UX on Itanium (64 bit)

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c +DD64 -I../../common -L../../demo -lsc_ex -lsc_da -DUNIX_64 -Wl,+s,+b,'$ORIGIN'

5.9 IBM AIX Compiling and Linking

All libraries should be installed into a single directory and the directory must be included in the system's shared library path ($LIBPATH). $LIBPATH must be set and must point to the directory containing the Oracle Outside In Technology.

Oracle Outside In Technology has been updated to increase performance, at a cost of using more memory. It is possible that this increased memory usage may cause a problem on AIX systems, which can be very conservative in the amount of memory they grant to processes. If your application experiences problems due to memory limitations with Oracle Outside In, you may be able to fix this problem by using the "large page" memory model.

If you anticipate viewing or converting very large files with Oracle Outside In technology, we recommend linking your applications with the -bmaxdata flag. For example:

cc -o foo foo.c -bmaxdata:0x80000000

If you are currently seeing "illegal instruction" errors followed by immediate program exit, this is likely due to not using the large data model.

The shared libraries are dependent on the presence of the X libraries Xm, Xt and X11 if vector graphics support is required. It is the application developer's responsibility to ensure that the needed functions from these libraries are present before the product libraries are used.

The following is an example command line used to compile the sample application exsimple from the /sdk/samplecode/unix directory. This command line is only an example. The actual command line required on the developer's system may vary. The example assumes that the include and library file search paths for the technology libraries and any required X libraries are set correctly. If they are not set correctly, the search paths for the include and/or library files must be explicitly specified via the -I include file path and/or -Llibrary file path options, respectively, so that the compiler and linker can locate all required files. Developers need to pass -brtl to the linker to list libraries in the link command as dependencies of their applications.

Developers may need to use the -qcpluscmt flag to allow C++ style comments.

5.9.1 IBM AIX (32-bit pSeries)

Note:

IBM AIX (32-bit pSeries) is not supported release 8.5.6 onward.

gcc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -I../../common -L../../demo -lsc_ex -lsc_da -DFUNCPROTO -Wl, -brtl

5.9.2 IBM AIX PPC (64-bit)

gcc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -maix64 -I../../common -L../../demo -lsc_ex -lsc_da -DUNIX_64 -DFUNCPROTO -Wl, -brtl

5.10 Linux Compiling and Linking

This section discusses issues involving Linux compiling and linking.

5.10.1 Library Compatibility

This section discusses Linux compatibility issues when using libraries.

5.10.1.1 Motif Libraries

Problems can be seen when using Export products and trying to convert graphics files. For example, zero-byte graphics files are generated if the technology cannot find the proper Motif library. You can check to see if this is the case by running the following command:

ldd libos_xwin.so

This prints a list of the dependencies that this library has. If the line for the Motif library is similar to the following then your system may not have a compatible Motif library:

libXm.so.3 => not found

The solution is to install a compatible Motif library and use it to build your application. Often, the installation discs for your particular Linux platform have the proper libraries. If your installation discs do not have the libraries, instructions for downloading a binary rpm can be found at http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM.

If you are doing development, you must use the proper header files, as well.

The following is a list of the Motif library versions used by Oracle when building and testing the Oracle Outside In binaries.

x86 Linux: OpenMotif v. 2.2.3
zSeries Linux: OpenMotif v. 2.2.3
Itanium Linux: OpenMotif v. 2.1.30

If a directory needs to be specified for the compiler to find the shared libraries, the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is recommended. This prevents the compiler from hard-coding the library's current directory into the executable as the only directory to search for the library at run time. Instead, the system first searches the directories specified by $LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the library.

5.10.1.2 GLIBC and Compiler Versions

The following table indicates the compiler version used and the minimum required version of the GNU standard C library needed for Oracle Outside In operation.

Distribution	Compiler Version	GLIBC Version
x86 Linux	3.3.2	libc.so.6 (2.3.2 or newer)
Itanium Linux	3.3.2	libc.so.6 (2.3.2 or newer)
zSeries Linux	3.3.6	libc.so.6 (2.3.2 or newer)

5.10.1.3 Other Libraries

In addition to libc.so.6, Oracle Outside In is dependent upon the following libraries:

libXm.so.3 (in particular, libXm.so.3.0.2 or newer, due to issues in OpenMotif 2.2.2)
libXt.so.6

libstdc++.so.6
libgcc_so.1

libgcc_s.so.1 was introduced with GCC 3.0, so any distribution based on a pre-GCC 3.0 compiler does not include libgcc_s.so.1.

5.10.2 Compiling and Linking

The libsc_ex.so and libsc_da.so are the only libraries that must be linked with your applications. They can be loaded when your application starts by linking them directly at compile time or they can be loaded dynamically by your application using library load functions (for example, dlopen).

The shared libraries are dependent on the presence of the X libraries Xm, Xt and X11 if vector graphics support is required. It is the application developer's responsibility to ensure that the needed functions from these libraries are present before the product libraries are used.

The following are example command lines used to compile the sample application exsimple from the /sdk/samplecode/unix directory. This command line is only an example. The actual command line required on the developer's system may vary.

The example assumes that the include and library file search paths for the technology libraries and any required X libraries are set correctly. If they are not set correctly, the search paths for the include and/or library files must be explicitly specified via the -I include file path and/or -L library file path options, respectively, so the compiler and linker can locate all required files.

The -L/usr/X11R6/lib option is also available.

5.10.2.1 Linux 32-bit, including Linux PPC

Note:

Linux 32-bit (including Linux PPC) is not supported release 8.5.6 onward.

gcc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -I/usr/local/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/local/lib -lsc_ex -lsc_da -Wl,-rpath,../../demo -Wl,-rpath,'${ORIGIN}'

5.11 Oracle Solaris Compiling and Linking

Note:

These products do not support the "Solaris BSD" mode.

All libraries should be installed into a single directory. The libsc_ex.so, and libsc_da.so libraries must be linked with your application. It can be loaded when your application starts by linking them directly at compile time or they can be loaded dynamically by your application using library load functions (for example, dlopen).

The shared libraries are dependent on the presence of the X libraries Xm, Xt and X11 if vector graphics support is required. It is the application developer's responsibility to ensure that the needed functions from these libraries are present before the product libraries are used.

The following is an example command line used to compile the sample application exsimple from the /sdk/samplecode/unix directory. This command line is only an example. The actual command line required on the developer's system may vary. The example assumes that the include and library file search paths for the technology libraries and any required X libraries are set correctly. If they are not set correctly, the search paths for the include and/or library files must be explicitly specified via the -I include file path> and/or -L library file path options, respectively, so that the compiler and linker can locate all required files.

Developers may need to use the -xcc flag to allow C++ style comments.

5.11.1 Oracle Solaris SPARC

Note:

Oracle Solaris SPARC is not supported release 8.5.6 onward.

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -I/usr/include -I/usr/dt/share/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/lib -L/lib -lsc_ex -lsc_da -Wl,-R,../../demo -Wl,-R,'${ORIGIN}'

When running the 32-bit SPARC binaries on Solaris 9 systems, you may see the following error:

ld.so.1: simple: fatal: libm.so.1: version `SUNW_1.1.1' not found
(required by file ./libsc_vw.so)

This is due to a missing system patch. Apply one of the following patches (or its successor) to your system to correct.

For Solaris 9: Patch 111722-04

5.11.2 Oracle Solaris (SPARC) 64

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -xtarget=generic64 -I/usr/include -I/usr/dt/share/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/lib -L/lib -lsc_ex -lsc_da -DUNIX_64 -Wl,-R,../../demo -Wl,-R,'${ORIGIN}'

5.11.3 Oracle Solaris x86

Note:

Your system will require Solaris patch 108436, which contains the C++ library libCstd.so.1.

cc -w -o ../exsimple/unix/exsimple ../exsimple/unix/exsimple.c -I/usr/include -I/usr/dt/share/include -I../../common -L../../demo -L/usr/lib -L/lib -lsc_ex -lsc_da -Wl,-R,../../demo -Wl,-R,'${ORIGIN}'

5.12 z/OS Compiling and Linking

The libsc_ex.x and libsc_da.x libraries must be linked with your application. They can be loaded when your application starts by linking them directly at compile time or they can be loaded dynamically by your application using library load functions (for example, dlopen).

The shared libraries are dependent on the presence of the X libraries Xm, Xt and X11 if vector graphics support is required. It is the application developer's responsibility to ensure that the needed functions from these libraries are present before the product libraries are used.

All libraries should be installed into a single directory and the directory must be included in the system's shared library path ($LIBPATH). $LIBPATH must be set and must point to the directory containing the Oracle Outside In technology.

The following is an example command line used to compile the sample application exsimple from the /sdk/samplecode/unix directory. This command line is only an example. The actual command line required on the developer's system may vary. The example assumes that the include and library file search paths for the technology libraries and any required X libraries are set correctly. If they are not set correctly, the search paths for the include and/or library files must be explicitly specified via the -I include file path and/or -L library file path options, respectively, so the compiler and linker can locate all required files.
