Author A.Kishore http://appsdba.info b> cygwin Installation (This is free software and preferred) Note: If you have installed MKS toolkit, this step is not necessary
CYGWIN - http://cygwin.com/ - Download setup.exe to your machine. Run setup.exe and click Next, which will bring up the Choose Installation Type screen. Select -> Install from Internet and Click Next Select -> Root Directory C:\cygwin and select radio button Install for -> All Users and Default Text File Type -> DOS / text -> Next Local Package Directory can be any but C:\cygwin is recommended. -> Next Direct Connection.

Base Default, plus manually select the following extra packages: ash, coreutils, diffutils, findutils, gawk, grep, sed, tar and which d.

It will take some time depending upon mirror site you selected and after download cygwin setup will be automatically starts. After installation completed Open folder C:\cygwin\bin And rename followings gawk.exe to awk.exe grep.exe to egrep.exe make.exe to gnumake.exe gcc.exe to cc.exe You can override the name if system says that awk or egrep or cc already exits just remove or move to some other place. Set the Path to include the C:\cygwin\bin C:\> set PATH = %PATH%;c:\cygwin\bin

Author A.Kishore http://appsdba.info

And then check your PATH to see that it include C:\cygwin\bin and C:\V98\bin C:\>echo %PATH%

Author A.Kishore http://appsdba.info 5> Configure gnumake and copy gnumake.exe Note: If you have installed cygwin, this step is not necessary
To download GNUMAKE, point your browser to the following URL:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make
At the time of writing this document, any one of the following files is needed:

make-3.77.tar.gz make-3.78.1.tar.gz make-3.79.1.tar.gz make-3.79.tar.gz

Please note, you can choose any one of above shown files. Development requires to install version 3.77 or above. Downloading the latest available version is perhaps the best decision.

NOTE From this point on, this document assumes that version 3.77 has been downloaded.
For instance, suppose you have downloaded file make-3.77.tar.gz on a directory called C:\GNUMAKE, unpack this file using gunzip.exe from a Command Prompt window Example:

C:\GNUMAKE>gunzip make-3.77.tar.gz
The above command unpacks make-3.77.tar.gz and the extension .gz is removed. On the same Command Prompt Window, you should unTAR the file, with the following command:

C:\GNUMAKE>tar -xvf make-3.77.tar

This will create a new subdirectory called MAKE-3.77 under C:\GNUMAKE In the new subdirectory, there is a batch file called build_w32.bat; run the batch file to build GNUMAKE.EXE. If the build was successful, check under C:\GNUMAKE\MAKE-3.77 for a directory named WINREL. In this directory you'll find GNUMAKE.EXE

Author A.Kishore http://appsdba.info I had execute build_w32.bat for 2 times

copy C:\gnumake\make-3.79.1\WinDebug\gnumake to c:\mks\mksnt copy C:\gnumake\make-3.79.1\WinDebug\gnumake to C:\WINDOWS\system32 copy C:\VC98\Bin\link.exe to c:\mks\mksnt and C:\WINDOWS\system32

Author A.Kishore http://appsdba.info 6> Add Microsoft loopback for standalone (not in network) Note: Preferred for laptops and desktop where network card is not available and also you want to use as standalone. If you have network card it should always be in the network else the oracle listener will come down.
