24 To Build uresb on Windows
25 1. Install and build ICU
26 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\uresb\uresb.sln
27 3. Choose a Debug or Release build.
28 4. Build.
29
30 To Run on Windows
31 1. Start a command shell window
32 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
33 set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
34 (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
35 3. cd into the uresb directory, e.g.
36 cd c:\icu\source\samples\uresb\debug
37 4. Run it (with a locale name, ex. english)
38 uresb en
39 WARNING: The .txt files must be in the same directory as the executable, which is not the case by default on some systems.
40
41 To Build on Unixes
42 1. Build ICU.
43 Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
44 using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something
45 like this:
46 cd <icu directory>/source
47 runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
48 gmake all
49
50 2. Install ICU,
51 gmake install
52
53 3. Compile
54 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uresb
55 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory) ICU_PATH=<icu source directory>
56
57 To Run on Unixes
58 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uresb
59
60 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory> check
61 -or-
62
63 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
64 uresb
65
66
67 Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
68 If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
69 the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
70 for Linux and Solaris.
