11.5: How to obtain tools

Q: How to obtain necessary tools.

A: To use StackThreads/MP, you need make, sh, nm, gawk, and gcc. Virtually all UNIX platforms already have make, sh, and nm, although we recommend you to install GNU make. gawk is mandatory; awk cannot replace gawk. If you do not have nm or nm on your system doesn't work, you can install GNU nm. It is included in binutils.

For UNIXs, all these tools are available in a variety of sites. On Windows NT, all these tools are available as Cygnus GNUWIN32 package. If you have no idea, visit StackThreads/MP home page and follow links from there.
