LinCAT: Installation

Print-friendly Version

January 2004

Installation instructions follow for the Linux Compatibility Assurance Toolkit 1.1 (LinCAT), also known as the Linux Analyzer for C/C++ Source Code.

In the Solaris Operating System, packages are loaded into the /opt directory by default. This package also uses the same convention for Linux. In addition, a custom path can be set using command-line options with the install script.

install /usr/local/mypath

would install the packages in the path /usr/local/mypath.

See the README file for any late-breaking news or issues.
