2. Software Information
Software Category
UnixWare is a desktop Operating System derived from System V release 4.2.
It includes support for TCP/IP and Netware networking, X/Window, Motif and a Desktop Manager.
UnixWare Version and Release Level
A beta release of UnixWare version 2.0 for the Intel386 family (Load q7.1) source code was used.
Authors
The authors of the UnixWare system are the Novell, Inc., with portions of code developed by other contributors such as the University of Berkeley and MIT.
Source code
The source code delivery for UnixWare 2.0 beta release represents approximately 240 Mbytes of code. Most of the system has been recompiled during the NAT-NAT phase of this project.
Included in this code is a graphical interface, based on X11 and Motif. However, since this interface contains some code delivered in binary format and since this interface is an optional part of a Unix system, we did not use this code.
Component | Size |
---|---|
Libraries | 15MB |
Kernel | 30MB |
Commands & tools | 101MB |
Graphics | 85MB |
Misc. | 11MB |
Total | 242MB |
In addition, various data files are delivered, for configuration and messaging, especially under Command & tools directories. In addition, some parts of the system, for example the kernel code for the vxfs file system and some device drivers, appear to be delivered in binary format only. So, a more accurate view of the volume of source code submitted to the TenDRA technology is provided by sizing the C language source files only:
Component | Size |
---|---|
Headers | 19.7MB |
Libraries | 11.2MB |
Kernel | 19.8MB |
Commands & tools | 39.6MB |
Total | 90.3MB |
TenDRA (ANDF) Technology Version Release
