developer tools

[sollaires]

the public beta doesn't come with any compiling-type tools (g,g++, make). there is another cd that developers get that will have those. however, i had a copy of the dp4 cd around, and after looking through the stuff in there, i found a developer tools package. fired it up and installed it. everything works (essentially). so if you have a copy of dp4, you can do more fun stuff with the console and such.

Also, the plain console developer tools like cc, make & stuff can be installed by downloading the Darwin image from apple's site and then applying the macaddict patch (www.macaddict.com).

The dev tools will be available for download by ADC online(i.e. free) members in mid-October.

There is an article about installing developer tools after downloading Darwin 1.x from the Apple site. Apple removed them completed in the OS X Beta. The article url is http://www.maximumlinux.com/content/...plate=print.wm

This is only if you like to mess with UNIX though. It is not a visual interface by any means.

However, the melding of the MAC OS and UNIX, in my view, is the best thing since sliced bread for my two favorite operating systems.

I tried to do this and the terminal kept saying "Permission Denied". Any ideas how to get around this?

P.S. I used su to become a super user (root) and opened both darwin images like the article said.

Hi,

Try to login as root. your admin password should work. The problem is unix restrictions on adding files to the system folders.

I am unsure if you can do this from the terminal, i can't but you can login as root from the main screen.
And you can login as "console" and get just the shell.

A couple of things to try:

The script may not be executable by default, so try
either

chmod a+x InstallCompiler.sh
./InstallCompiler.sh

to make it executable first or just force it to run
using

/bin/sh ./InstallCompiler.sh

If that doesn't do it then make sure the Darwin disk
is mounted correctly, i.e. the command

ls /Darwin\ 1.0

shouldn't give an error.
