Hi! ----
2008-06-24: ksh93 update tarballs for Solaris Nevada >= B84+Indiana These tarballs are intended to be installed over an existing OpenSolaris >= B84 i386 or SPARC installation and provide ksh93t-_20080614 and match PSARC/2008/094 ("ksh93 Update 1" ; http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2008/094)/ + PSARC/2008/344 ("ksh93 Integration Update 1 Amendments 1" ; http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2008/344/) Note that the binaries are provided for testing and evaluation purposes ONLY. Please report any problems/errors/bugs/comments to the ksh93-integration project bugzilla[5] or the ksh93-integration mailinglist[4] (please subscribe before posting). ** Highlights of this release: - /etc/ksh.kshrc now sets a default prompt for interactive sessions (see NOTES below) and enables the "multiline" input mode. - Many bugfixes, primarily focussing on stability, improved error checking, performance and fixing support for large, complex variable trees. - Many closed-source binaries are replaced with opensource versions - The shell script compiler "shcomp" is now included - Many new demos including: - "crawlsrccomments" (two-phased source code comment+license extrator which uses serialised variable trees for storage+caching) - "filemutexdemo1" (demo to show ksh93's new type system and an implementation of filesystem-based read/write locks) - "multifollow" (poll(1) demo which run multiple "tail -f") - "shnote" (utility to read/write pastebin.ca) - "shtwitter" (access twitter.com service and push blog entries) - "shpiano" (audio demo) - "shtinyurl" (tool to generate short tinyurl.com URLs) - "svcproptree1" (SMF demo) - "test_net_sctp" (SCTP demo) - "shman" (early prototype of a /usr/bin/man rewrite) - "xmldocumenttree1" (XML parser demo) ... and much more... ** Major changes since the 2008-06-17 release: - Fixed and re-enabled the "multiline" input mode per community requests - Updated demo code (mainly the /usr/bin/man-rewrite proof-of-concept demo "shman.sh") ** Install instructions: 1. Download the tarball: + i386/AMD64: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 + SPARC: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 2. Verify the MD5 checksum: + i386/AMD64: MD5 (ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)= e8d8a25ae9121a087a9a1ee9840bff40 + SPARC: MD5 (ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)= 7903cfdfb3ec2f43b355aab1cbc18123 3. Login as user "root": 4. Change directory to / and unpack the tarball with /usr/bin/tar using the "xvof" option ("o" is very important to set the file ownership to "root") * Example for i386/AMD64: $ cd /tmp $ wget http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 $ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5 ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 MD5(ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)= e8d8a25ae9121a087a9a1ee9840bff40 # cd / # sync ; sync # bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 | \ tar -xvof - # sync ; sync * Example for SPARC: $ cd /tmp $ wget http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 $ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5 ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 MD5(ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)= 7903cfdfb3ec2f43b355aab1cbc18123 # cd / # sync ; sync # bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20080624_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 | \ tar -xvof - # sync ; sync ** Notes: * This tarball matches ksh93t- (=ast-ksh.2008-06-14) with many many changes since the last version. Please test the binaries extensively. * The binaries now are build from a B84-based tree and require SXCR B84 or higher * Sources/diffs/webrevs: + The diffs between Solaris Nevada B84 and the current ksh93-integration tree can be obtained via svn diff -r 974:1134 svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ ksh93/gisburn/prototype011/usr or as unified diff (4.5MB, MD5 checksum is 135b9b3bc07abd62393e007d9e4eec5c). * "multiline" input mode is now enabled by default in /etc/ksh.kshrc to match input/editor behaviour of bash. * /etc/ksh.kshrc now sets a default prompt (PS1) which contains <username>@<hostname>:<current_directory>$<blank> for normal users and <username>@<hostname>:<current_directory>#<blank> for user "root"; the prompt length itself is limited to ~~20 characters to ensure it only occupies 1/4 of a standard 80x24 terminal window. * <esc><ctrl-l> was added to emacs/gmacs mode to clear the screen (per community requests and to be in sync with bash) * 64bit binaries and libraries are now included (and used by default if the hardware is 64bit capable) * "shcomp", the shell script compiler is now included as /usr/bin/shcomp. * AST l10n utilities are stored in /usr/ast/bin/. * Starting with ksh93s+ multibyte characters can be used for variable/function/etc.-names. Please test this functionality extensively. * The tarball was created using the build_ksh93_standalone_tarball.sh script which is available in the usr/-directory of the prototype011 tree. Note: The script can only be used after a successfull $ make setup ; dmake install #-sequence, otherwise the resulting tarball will be incomplete. * The tarballs do not provide a manual page for ksh93. Please use the manual page for ksh93s+ in the meantime. * The ksh93 binaries can be build from source like this: (Instructions are for Solaris i386/AMD64; SPARC requires minor adjustments) 1. Pull sources and extract closed bin stuff (files can be obtained from opensolaris.org): $ mkdir test_x86 ; cd test_x86 $ svn checkout -r 1134 svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype011/usr $ bzcat <../download/on-closed-bins-nd-b84.i386.tar.bz2 | tar -xf - $ cd .. 2. Create opensolaris.sh. This is the usual opensolaris.sh with the paths adjusted to match your location of the sources. Example for the changes applies to opensolaris.sh (for my workspace): -- snip -- --- ./test_x86/usr/src/tools/env/opensolaris.sh Thu Sep 1 0:0:0 2666 +++ ./opensolaris.sh Sun Jul 1 0:0:0 2006 @@ -43,10 +43,10 @@ # This is a variable for the rest of the script - GATE # doesn't matter to nightly itself -GATE=testws; export GATE +GATE=test_x86; export GATE # CODEMGR_WS - where is your workspace at # (or what should nightly name it) -CODEMGR_WS="/work/$GATE"; export CODEMGR_WS +CODEMGR_WS="/home/test001/ksh93/on_build1/$GATE";export CODEMGR_WS # Location of encumbered binaries.
