Installation type
BladePack creates a directory structure in the target directory and copies files into the tree. When you build an interactive installation for a UNIX™ operating system, BladePack includes install and uninstall shell scripts.
When you build a file tree installation, BladePack creates the file tree specified in the project in the target directory. A file tree build is useful for debugging the BladePack project.
After you successfully build an interactive installation, the target
directory contains the subdirectories described in the following table.
| Directory | Description |
|---|---|
| cdrom | Contains an image of the installation package
that can be transferred to distribution media. DataBlade® module
developers can rename this directory to the name of the DataBlade module
before creating a .tar file. This directory contains an install shell script and other files that the install script uses during installation. |
| support | Contains copies of files to support the installation, such as project files. Its contents are not distributed with your installation package. |
| folder_tree | Contains a directory tree containing the contents of all of the directories to be included in the installation package. The contents of this directory are not distributed with your installation package. |
| tree | The root of a directory tree containing files
to be included in the installation package. The tree directory
can be used to debug problems in the installation package. The contents of this directory are not distributed with your installation package. |
