| 33 | CMT is a <i>configuration management</i> environment, based on some
|
|---|
| 34 | management conventions and comprises several shell-based utilities. It
|
|---|
| 35 | is an attempt to formalize software production and especially
|
|---|
| 36 | configuration management around a <i>package</i>-oriented principle.
|
|---|
| 37 |
|
|---|
| 38 | <p>The notion of <i>packages</i> represents hereafter a set of
|
|---|
| 39 | software components (that may be applications, libraries, tools
|
|---|
| 40 | etc...) that are to be used for producing a <i>system</i> or a
|
|---|
| 41 | <i>framework</i>. In such an environment, several persons are assumed
|
|---|
| 42 | to participate in the development and the components themselves are
|
|---|
| 43 | either independent or related to each other.
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | <p>The environment provides conventions (for <i>naming</i> packages,
|
|---|
| 46 | files, directories and for <i>addressing</i> them) and
|
|---|
| 47 | tools for <i>automating</i> as much as possible the
|
|---|
| 48 | implementation of these conventions. It permits to
|
|---|
| 49 | <i>describe</i> the configuration requirements and automatically
|
|---|
| 50 | deduce from the description the effective set of configuration
|
|---|
| 51 | parameters needed to operate the packages (typically for
|
|---|
| 52 | <i>building</i> them or <i>using</i> them).
|
|---|
