-Installing products with the Installation -Wizard

-You can run the Installation Wizard in two modes. It's root directory contains -python script runInstall.py: -

[ python ] runInstall [ -g | b ] [ -f <xml-file> ] [ -t <target-dir> -] [ -tmp <tmp-dir> ] -

-g                        -Runs the Installation Wizard in the GUI mode. In this case only <xml-file> -key is taken into account. This option is used by default. -
-b                        -Runs the Installation Wizard in the batch mode. -
-f <xml-file>      The configuration -file to be used by the Installation Wizard. If this parameter is -missed then the script tries to define the Red Hat version and use -corresponding xml file. For examle, for the Red Hat 8.0 config_RedHat8_0.xml -file is supposed to be used by default. If the appropriate file is not -found, config.xml is used by default. -
-t <target-dir> The target directory, SALOME products -to be installed to. If used, overloads target directory, described in the -configuration file. -
-tmp <tmp-dir> The directory, which is used to contain -temporary files. If used, overloads temporary directory, described -in the configuration file. + +

Installing products with the Installation Wizard

+ You can run the Installation Wizard in two modes. It's root directory contains + python script runInstall.py: +

[ python ] runInstall [ -g | b ] [ -f <xml-file> ] [ -t <target-dir> + ] [ -tmp <tmp-dir> ]

+ +

-g
+ Runs the Installation Wizard in the GUI +mode. In this case only <xml-file> key is taken into account. This +option is used by default.
+ -b
+ Runs the Installation Wizard in the batch +mode.
+ -f <xml-file>
+ The configuration file to be used by the +Installation Wizard. If this parameter is missed then the script tries +to define the Red Hat version and uses corresponding xml file. For +examle, for the Red Hat 8.0 config_RedHat8_0.xml file +is supposed to be used by default. If the appropriate file is not found, config.xml +is used by default.
+ -t <target-dir>
+ The target directory, SALOME products to +be installed to. If used, overloads target directory, given in the configuration +xml file.
+ -tmp <tmp-dir>
+ The directory, which is used to contain + temporary files. If used, overloads temporary directory, given in the +configuration xml file.
+-h
+ Prints help information.
+

So, to run the Installation Wizard in the GUI mode, just type runInstall. +

The installation procedure can support some different Linux platforms -(currently it provides configuration scripts for RedHat-7.1 and -RedHat-8.0) -and various number of products. -
The using of configuration xml files gives flexible way to modify the -list of products to be installed by the Installation Wizard without changing -program's source code. Just create your own configuration file and implement -installation scripts for products you want to be provided by Wizard. See -modifying -XML configuration file and implementing installation -scripts for the new products for more information. -

The Installation Wizard was built with -using of the Qt library. The program contains several -pages. To navigate between pages use "Next" and "Back" buttons -in the lower part of the wizard window. "Cancel" button closes dialog -window and quits the installation procedure. To invoke this help information -click -"Help" button. -

Skip the first "Introduction" page by pressing "Next" button. +

In the second page you are proposed to enter the target directory where -all selected products will be installed to. You can also press "Browse..." -button and choose the folder for installation using standard Qt -browse directory dialog box. -
If the directory you want to install products does not exist you will -be prompted to confirm directory creation. If you type wrong directory -path, or if you have no permission for the directory you use, the corresponding -message box will raise. -

The Installation Wizard has two modes of the installation: basic and -advanced. In the basic mode it is necessary just to enter target directory. -If you want to use advanced mode, click "More..." button. -

In the advanced mode you have the possibility to select products to -be installed (see Fig.1 ). Each product has -several options of installation: you have a possibility to use native products, -install already precompiled binaries, build product from the sources or -not installed at all. Possible options and default choice are provided -by the configuration file. You can mark the products, you want to install, -by clicking the corresponding radiobuttons in the list view in the left -part of the page. Note that some products can be installed only together -with other products (or these prerequisite products should be already installed -on your computer). The installation procedure has a special feature to -automatically mark these products in the list view. For example, in order -to install pyqt it's necessary to have -gcc, python, -qt and -sip installed. Therefore all these products -will be marked when you check on -pyqt. This feature can be -switched off by clicking "Auto set prerequisites products" checkbox. -
Special button in the right part of the page - "Unselect All" - -allows to reset quickly all products to the "not install" state. -
If you want to use native Linux Red Hat 8.0 products (these are gcc, -tcl, Python, Qt, Sip and PyQt), select "use native" option. -

The box at the right side of the page displays the information about -currently highlighted product: name, version, required disk space, temporary -files disk space and list of prerequisites. -

Pick up the environment

+ Please, read carefully the following information. This section describes + how the installation procedure collects environment.

After installing each product shell script creates in the product root -folder special environment file.

For example for Vtk -the file is env_Vtk.sh. Environment files allows to pick up all -environment settings which are necessary to build and launch SALOME. When -installing SALOME sources and/or binaries, installation procedure picks -up all the settings files and generate two scripts: salome.sh and -salome.csh -for -sh and csh correspondingly. Such approach helps to save time when reinstalling -products and you may not to care about setting all environment variables + folder special environment file.
