Building CtCmd to work with cqperl on the UNIX™ system and Linux™

After following the instructions for unpacking the kit, check to see if ratlperl is found using your PATH environment variable. If not, add the path:


setenv PATH /opt/rational/common/bin:$PATH

Build from the directory where you unpacked the kit:


ratlperl Makefile.PL

make

make test

make install

Note: If you use ratlperl, make install bases the installation path off of the path to ratlperl. In this example, running make install installs CtCmd to the /opt/rational/common/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-multi/ClearCase directory. This configuration is acceptable when /opt is an exported drive that is accessible to all Rational® ClearQuest® users on the UNIX™ system and Linux™ clients, such as /net/solarishost/opt.

To verify the installation, run this example Perl script using either ratlperl or cqperl:


cqperl script_name;
