How can I make 'vi' work when included in my ifs?
 
________________________________________________________________________

Applicable Environment
________________________________________________________________________
  • Topic: How can I make 'vi' work when included in my IFS?
  • SDP: 6.5.0
  • Target: Any supported target
________________________________________________________________________

Recommendation
________________________________________________________________________

Include the following files in your image.

vi
/etc/termcap = ./termcap
/usr/lib/terminfo/q/qansi = /usr/lib/terminfo/q/qansi

A simplified termcap file is attached to this solution. It is assumed to be in the same directory as the build file. The terminfo link will work when building the ifs on a Neutrino self-hosted system. For building in on a Windows machine, it will look something like:

/usr/lib/terminfo/q/qansi = C:\QNX650\target\qnx6\usr\lib\terminfo\q

NOTE: This entry has been validated against the SDP version listed above. Use caution when considering this advice for any other SDP version. For supported releases, please reach out to QNX Technical Support if you have any questions/concerns.
