PROBUILD Requirements
The PROBUILD utility has software and environment requirements. Follow these steps to set up your environment to run PROBUILD:
- Run PROBUILD to create executables on the machine that you plan to run them. For example, if you are building a remote DataServer configuration, to build the broker and the DataServer, run PROBUILD on the host. To build the client, run PROBUILD on the client machine. If you are building executables for deployment, be sure to build the executables on the same platform on which your users will run them.
- Make sure that you have a linker installed on your system.
- Verify settings for Progress environment variables. Set DLC to the directory where you have installed Progress.
- Verify that the
buildenv
script (located in the$DLC/probuild/eucapp
directory) includes the appropriate environment-variable settings for your system.The link script that PROBUILD creates calls the
buildenv
script. Thebuildenv
script sets default values for environment variables that point to objects, libraries, and options involved in linking executables. You can edit this script to customize environments for different sites.PROBUILD also generates a log file,
buildenv.log
, which includes information about how your DataServer environment is configured. This information is useful to you and Technical Support when troubleshooting connection problems. Here is part of a samplebuildenv.log
file:
For more information on the PROBUILD utility, see the Progress Client Deployment Guide. For more information on environment variables, see the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for Windows or the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for UNIX.
After setting up the PROBUILD environment, you can run PROBUILD to generate link scripts that create the executables required by the various DataServer configurations. The following sections describe how to build, set up, and run client and host DataServer modules.
