Boot Strap Tools

Module 0: Boot Strap Tools

Project Leader: Harlan Stenn

Definition: All the programs required to build and install an OP compatible package. These tools are the pre-requisites for all other OP modules.

At install time, OP checks the target system for compatible tools to complete each of the tasks required by the OP modules. If one or more required tools are not found, they will be installed. An OP compatible build environment is also installed.

Leverage Points:Installs or verifies a specific list of tools that the other modules can rely on. Installs the OP build envrionment.

OP Required Tools:

* BSD Compatible Make: Supplies OP Make if not found.
* URL compatible fetch/ftp utility: Installs curl if not found.

Other Considerations

* Binary Installers for certain OS/Platforms.
