DESCRIPTION

This is a wrapper around ots-build to customize it for the MST environment. Instead of sourcing the ots-build script, source the mst-ots-build script. Then follow the instructions for ots-build.

What is changed

The following changes are made to the standard ots-build functionality:

• All of the sysarch environment variables are available

• Additional options are available:

  --ots-root

  It defaults to ${MST_ROOT}/ots. if $MST_ROOT is not set, it is set to /proj/axaf.

  --ots-pkgs

  It defaults to ${ots_root}/pkgs

  --sysplat

  It defaults to the sysarch platform_os_generic variable. (Historically this was the $platform variable, but this clashes with the sysarch $platform variable.

  --make

  The name of the make command. On Solaris this defaults to gmake; everywhere else it's make. The result is also made available in the MAKE shell variable.

  --tar

  The name of the tar command. On Solaris this defaults to gtar; everywhere else it's tar. The result is also made available in the TAR shell variable.

  --config-opts

  This is an array which can be used to provide additional configuration options.

• The prefix option defaults to $ots_root/$package

• The exec-prefix option defaults to $prefix/$sysplat

• Additional build variables

  ots_prefix

  Defaults to $ots_root.

  ots_exec_prefix

  Defaults to ${ots_prefix}/${sysplat}

  pkg_config_dir

  Where the pkg-config specification files are stored.
