4.3.4 Deploying a CLI application along with ODBC CLI driver

The general tasks for deploying a CLI application with the ODBC CLI driver are as follows:

￿Prepare the redistributable driver files.

￿Prepare the application executable file.

￿Prepare the deployment package.

￿Deploy the package to the target system.

Preparing the redistributable driver files

The first step to deploy our application is to build a driver package for redistribution. We obtain the redistributable file list from the license file and generate a package based on the list.

We demonstrates this procedure using a shell script. It goes through the redistributable file list and selects the required files to form a new package that can be bundled together with our application.

The steps to build this package are as follows:

1.Create a working folder where you have sufficient write and read permissions. Here we create a directory itso_cli under /tmp:

mkdir -p /tmp/itso_cli

2.Locate the license file that contains the redistributable files of the ODBC and CLI driver. Copy and paste the file names to a new file and save it in the working folder. In our example, we assign a meaningful name redist.txt to it. Example 4-5shows part of the file content.
