This chapter describes the OS specific parts of OTP which relate - to VxWorks. -

- -
- Introduction -

The Erlang/OTP distribution for VxWorks is limited to what - Switchboard requires (Switchboard is a general purpose - switching hardware developed by Ericsson). -

-

Please consult the README file, included at root level in the - installation, for latest information on the distribution. -

-
- -
- Memory Usage -

Memory required is 32 Mbyte. -

-
- -
- Disk Usage -

The disk space required is 22 Mbyte, the documentation included. -

-
- -
- Installation -

OTP/VxWorks is supplied in a distribution file named - .tar.gz]]>; i.e. a tar archive that is - compressed with gzip. ]]> represents the - name of the release, - e.g. otp_LXA12345_vxworks_cpu32_R42A. Assuming you are - installing to a Solaris file system, the installation is - performed by following these steps: < -

-

- - Change to the directory where you want to install - OTP/VxWorks (]]>): ]]> - Make a directory to put OTP/VxWorks in: mkdir otp_vxworks_cpu32 (or whatever you want to call it) - Change directory to the newly created one: cd otp_vxworks_cpu32 - Copy the distribution file there from where it is located - (]]>): /.tar.gz .]]> - Unzip the distribution file: .tar.gz]]> - Untar .tar]]>: .tar]]> - Create a bin directory: mkdir bin - Copy the VxWorks Erlang/OTP start-up script to the bin directory: - cp erts-Vsn/bin/erl bin/. - Copy the example start scripts to the bin directory: - cp releases/R42A/*.boot bin/. - -

If you use VxWorks nfs mounting facility to mount the Solaris - file system, this installation may be directly used. An other - possibility is to copy the installation to a local VxWorks DOS - file system, from where it is used. -

-

- OS Specific Functionality/Information -

There are a couple of files that are unique to the VxWorks - distribution of Erlang/OTP, these files are described here. -

- - README - this files has some information on VxWorks - specifics that you are advised to consult. This includes the - latest information on what parts of OTP are included in the - VxWorks distribution of Erlang/OTP. If you want us to - include more parts, please contact us to discuss - this. - erts-Vsn/bin/resolv.conf - A resolver configuration EXAMPLE file. - You have to edit this file. - erts-Vsn/bin/erl - This is an EXAMPLE start script for VxWorks. - You have to edit this file to suit your needs. - erts-Vsn/bin/erl_io - One possible solution to the problem - of competing Erlang and VxWorks shell. Contains the function - 'start_erl' called by the erl script. Also contains the - function 'to_erl' to be used when connecting to the Erlang - shell from VxWorks' shell. - erts-Vsn/bin/erl_exec - Rearranges command line arguments - and starts Erlang. - erts-Vsn/bin/vxcall - Allows spawning of standard VxWorks - shell functions (which is just about any function in the - system...) from open_port/2. E.g. open_port({spawn, 'vxcall - func arg1 arg2'}, []) will cause the output that 'func arg1, - arg2' would have given in the shell to be received from the - port. - erts-Vsn/bin/rdate - Set the time from a networked host, - like the SunOS command. Nothing Erlang-specific, but nice - if you want date/0 and time/0 to give meaningful values (you - also need a TIMEZONE environment setting if GMT isn't - acceptable). For example: putenv "TIMEZONE=CET::-60:033002:102603" sets central european - time. - erts-Vsn/src - Contains source for the above files, and - additionally config.c, driver.h, preload.c and - reclaim.h. Reclaim.h defines the interface to a simple - mechanism for "resource reclamation" that is part of the - Erlang runtime system - may be useful to "port program" writers (and - possibly others). Take careful note of the caveats listed in - the file! - -
- -
- Starting Erlang -

Start (and restart) of the system depends on what file system - is used. To be able to start the system from a nfs mounted - file system you can use VxWorks start script facility to run a - start script similar to the example below. Note that the - Erlang/OTP start-up script is run at the end of this script. -
