Double-click this to get started. 14 ustring.vcproj Windows MSVC project file 15 16 To Build ustring on Windows 17 1. Install and build ICU 18 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ustring\ustring.sln 19 3. Choose a Debug or Release build. 20 4. Build. 21 22 To Run on Windows 23 1. Start a command shell window 24 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g. 25 set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH% 26 (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.) 27 3. cd into the ustring directory, e.g. 28 cd c:\icu\source\samples\ustring\debug 29 4. Run it 30 ustring 31 32 To Build on Unixes 33 1. Build ICU. 34 Specify an ICU install directory when running configure, 35 using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something 36 like this: 37 cd <icu directory>/source 38 runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options] 39 gmake all 40 41 2. Install ICU, 42 gmake install 43 44 3. Compile 45 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ustring 46 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory) 47 48 To Run on Unixes 49 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ustring 50 51 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory> check 52 -or- 53 54 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 55 ustring 56 57 58 Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems. 59 If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of 60 the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name 61 for Linux and Solaris. 62 63 64
