The Acu4GL for Oracle product on UNIX is an add-on module that must be linked with the ACUCOBOL-GT runtime system. For this reason, you'll need a C compiler to install the Acu4GL product. In order to interface, you must use the ACUCOBOL-GT compiler and runtime. The version of the Runtime must match the version of Acu4GL.
The Acu4GL product is shipped using either TAR or CPIO format, depending on the type of machine you have. The label on the medium shipped to you tells you which format has been used.
From your Acucobol directory choose where you want to install the Acu4GL product (or create a new directory for it) and then enter one of the following commands:
tar xfv device
or
cpio -icvBd < device
This will copy the files from the distribution medium to your Acucobol directory structure. device is the appropriate hardware device name (for example, /dev/rdiskette or /dev/rmt0). Sites using Texas Instruments System 1500 should add an uppercase T to the cpio options (-icvBdT).
Contents of the medium
The READ_ME file on your distribution lists the files that are shipped with the product. Note that each Acu4GL product has its own license file which must be located in the same directory as the ACUCOBOL-GT runtime. For Oracle, the license file is distributed with the name runcbl.olc.
