DESCRIPTION

This is a wrapper around ots-build to customize it for the MST environment. Instead of sourcing the ots-build script, source the mst-ots-build script. Then follow the instructions for ots-build.

What is changed

The following changes are made to the standard ots-build functionality:

All of the sysarch environment variables are available
Additional options are available:

--ots-root

It defaults to ${MST_ROOT}/ots. if $MST_ROOT is not set, it is set to /proj/axaf.

--ots-pkgs

It defaults to ${ots_root}/pkgs

--sysplat

It defaults to the sysarch platform_os_generic variable. (Historically this was the $platform variable, but this clashes with the sysarch $platform variable.

--make

The name of the make command. On Solaris this defaults to gmake; everywhere else it's make. The result is also made available in the MAKE shell variable.

--tar

The name of the tar command. On Solaris this defaults to gtar; everywhere else it's tar. The result is also made available in the TAR shell variable.

--config-opts

This is an array which can be used to provide additional configuration options.
The prefix option defaults to $ots_root/$package
The exec-prefix option defaults to $prefix/$sysplat
Additional build variables

ots_prefix

Defaults to $ots_root.

ots_exec_prefix

Defaults to ${ots_prefix}/${sysplat}

pkg_config_dir

Where the pkg-config specification files are stored.
