You can check it out from the CVS command line 56 by using for example, "cvs co icuapps" instead of "cvs co icu", 57 or through WebCVS at http://dev.icu-project.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/icuapps/ 58 59 == 60 * How do I build the samples? 61 62 - See the Readme in each subdirectory 63 64 To build all samples at once: 65 66 Windows MSVC: 67 - build ICU 68 - open 'all' project file in 'all' subdirectory 69 - build project 70 - sample executables will be located in /x86/Debug folders of each sample subdirectory 71 72 Unix: - build and install (make install) ICU 73 - be sure 'icu-config' is accessible from the PATH 74 - type 'make all-samples' from this directory 75 (other targets: clean-samples, check-samples) 76 Note: 'make all-samples' won't work correctly in out of source builds. 77 78 - legacy and layout are not included in these lists, 79 please see their individual readmes. 80
