Before you read this document, read Sun Studio for an overview of the package and information on its use.
The Sun Studio package is installed in the directory /opt. We will refer to this installation directory as $SUNSTUDIO throughout this document. It is important to note that Sun Studio and its language compilers are only available on Strauss.
There may be newer test versions of Sun Studio on Strauss. If you want to use a test version, you must set the SUNSTUDIO environment variable to the version you want to use. You do not need to set this variable if you want the default version.
Here are the environment variables that you must set to use a alternate Sun Studio version with its compilers.
| SUNSTUDIO |
/opt/studio11 |
| PATH | ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/bin:$PATH |
| LD_LIBRARY_PATH | ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/lib |
| MANPATH | ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/man:/opt/man:/usr/man |
This documentation assumes that your UNIX account's configuration ("dot") files match, or are based upon, the Client Support and Services recommended configuration files: .cshrc, .login, .localalias, and .localenv. These files are found in the /opt/proto directory. Typing the UNIX command:
~consult/proto/setup
will cause your current configuration files to be renamed (for backup purposes) and replaced with the standard configuration files. The system will display the names of the renamed and replacement files.
The environment variables listed above will set your paths so that the Sun Studio commands, programming libraries, and online documentation are first in your path. In some cases, this replaces standard UNIX commands with ones just for Sun Studio. We recommend that you always start a new shell with these environment variables. When you are done, type
exit
to get back to the default environment.
Add the following lines to your ~/.localenv file:
# For Sun Studio with IDE
#setenv SUNSTUDIO /opt/studio11
These are both comment commands. Remove the # before the setenv command to use the alternate version of Sun Studio. You may need to update the setenv command with a new Sun Studio location.
Add the following lines to your ~/.localalias file,>
alias studioshell "(setenv NEED_STUDIO; newgrp \!*)"
if $?NEED_STUDIO then
unsetenv NEED_STUDIO
if $?SUNSTUDIO then
setenv PATH ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/bin:$PATH
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/lib
setenv MANPATH ${SUNSTUDIO}/SUNWspro/man:/opt/man:/usr/man
endif
if $?DISPLAY then
xset fp+ tcp/strauss.udel.edu:7100
endif
endif
The next time you log onto Strauss, you will be able to start an IDE-configured shell with the command
studioshell
To associate the new shell with a different group project id (e.g., a UNIX group assigned to a class), type the following command instead:
studioshell project
where project is your 4-digit group project number.
Once you have made the changes to both ~/.localenv and ~/.localalias files, logout and login again. To test your setup, type
studioshell<99>% studioshell

NAME
intro - introduction to Sun Studio command-line manual pages
DESCRIPTION
The Section 1 Sun Studio man pages include man pages for all
the command-line applications delivered with the Sun Studio
compilers and tools.
A complete index can be found by pointing a browser at
file:/opt/SUNWspro/docs
which assumes that the software has been installed in /opt

<2>% which CC
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC
Command <1>% shows the man command is getting the expected Sun Studio documentation, and command <2>% show the CC compiler is the correct version.
This all you need to edit, compile, debug and run your packages using standard UNIX command-line tools such as, CC and make. To run the IDE, which is based on netbeans, you run an X Windows server and properly connect to strauss. See: X Windows Configuration Setup for Using Sun Studio IDE
