      2 ufortune: a sample program demonstrating the use of ICU resource files by an application.
      3 
      4 This sample demonstrates
      5          Defining resources for use by an application
      6          Compiling and packaging them into a dll
      7          Referencing the resource-containing dll from application code
      8          Loading resource data using ICU's API
      9          
     10 Files:
     11     ./ufortune.c                 source code for the sample

     14     ./Makefile                   Makefile for Unixes.  Needs gmake.

     21 To Build ufortune on Windows
     22     1.  Install and build ICU
     23     2.  In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ufortune\ufortune.sln
     24     3.  Choose a Debug or Release build.
     25     4.  Build.

     27 To Run on Windows
     28     1.  Start a command shell window
     29     2.  Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
     30             set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
     31         (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
     32     3.  cd into the ufortune directory, e.g.
     33             cd c:\icu\source\samples\ufortune\debug
     34     4.  Run it
     35             ufortune
     36      
     37 
     38 To Build on Unixes
     39     1.  Build ICU.  Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
     40         using the --prefix option.  The steps to build ICU will look something
     41         like this:
     42            cd <icu directory>/source
     43            runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
     44            gmake all
     45            
     46     2.  Install ICU, 
     47            gmake install
     48            
     49     3.  Build the sample
     50            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ufortune
     51            export ICU_PREFIX= <icu install directory>
     52            gmake
     53            
     54  To Run on Unixes
     55            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ufortune
     56            
     57            gmake check
     58               or
     59            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
     60            ufortune
     61            
     62            
     63  Note:  The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
     64         If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
     65         the variable that is used there.  LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
     66         for Linux and Solaris.
