| | | | |
| − | = Simple use =
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ./build_dmg.sh ~/tau-2.22.2.tgz 2.22.2
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This will create a new tau-2.22.2.dmg in this directory.

| |
| − | == What this script actually does ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This script will take a gzipped tarball, uncompress, configure and build TAU
| |
| − | for the apple platform (PPC and Intel). It then takes this build of TAU and
| |
| − | places it in /Applications/TAU/tau where all the Apple Apps. (ParaProf.app
| |
| − | etc...) expect it to be. /Applications/TAU is then copied to a preallocated disk
| |
| − | image which is compressed and written out to the file system as a *.dmg file.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | !WARNING! This script uses /Applications/TAU as a staging area, files present in
| |
| − | this directory could be lost.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | !CAUTION! This script uses a preallocated disk partition of size 500MB. If in
| |
| − | the future TAU's distribution exceeds this size a new partition will need to be
| |
| − | created. This can be done with Apple's disk image utility. You will want to
| |
| − | create a larger sparse disk image to replace this one:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | disk_template/rw_template.sparseimage
| |
| − |
| |
| − | == How the installation works ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The finished directory structure should look like this:
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | / Applications / TAU /
| |
| − | inital_setup
| |
| − | inital_setup.sh
| |
| − | Jumpshot
| |
| − | ParaProf
| |
| − | PerfDMF_Configure
| |
| − | PerfExplorer
| |
| − | PerfExplorer_Configure
| |
| − | set_path.sh
| |
| − | tau /
| |
| − | tauIcon.icns
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The only thing that changes between releases of TAU is the 'tau' directory
| |
| − | everything remains unchanged. Jumpshop, ParaProf, PerfDMF_Configure,
| |
| − | PerfExplorer, PerfExplorer_Configure are Mac native applications and are basicly
| |
| − | wrappers for the shell scripts used under linux.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | inital_setup.sh is run each time one of these applications is run, it checks for the
| |
| − | presence of 'inital_setup' if found it asks the user if the MAC shell path should be
| |
| − | modified, then removes the 'inital_setup' file (this it only ask the first time
| |
| − | someone launches an application).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | set_path.sh modifies the user's shell path to add the TAU binary directory to
| |
| − | it.
