Hi,


I’m trying put some software on QNX but nothing work…
From the CD I downloaded, package manager goes inside the good directory,
tells me to choose the packets I want to install but there is no packets to
choose!!! I tried others directories but it tells me there is no repository
in the directory…
I tried www Repository but after 2 or 3 minutes showing it’s downloading
repository information, it tells me : " couldn’t resolv host
“packages.qnx.com”"…

Do I have to use Watcom for C++?
Where can I find it? It’s on the CD?

Sorry for these newbies questions but it makes ten hours Im trying to
install all this and if I don’t find the way to do it, i’ll throw my
computer through the window…

Thanks!!!

Hi,

Make sure the CD is in the CD ROM and you can select the QNX CD ROM
Repository after you start the pkg-installer. By default the drop down
is set to show new packages but you can change that to All Packages to
see everything. If you are trying to add a new reppository you have to
make sure that it is valid. There must be QPM and QPR files at that
location so that the pkg-installer can use them. For more information
see http://qdn.qnx.com/support/bok/solution.qnx?10402

For your C++ issue, you can use qcc in QNX 6.x. Take a look at the
documentation found at the following location.
http://qdn.qnx.com/support/docs/neutrino_2.11_en/utilities/q/qcc.html

I hope this helps,

Regards,
Dave B.
