BUILD INSTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS
- Prerequisites
- Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. (Tested with version 6.0) The environment variables for command-line compiling must be set up. You can test this by trying to compile `hello.cc' (in this directory) with the command:
cl -TP -GX -MD hello.cc
- omniORB4. Get it from http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/ You should set up your PATH environment to include: <omniORB Top-Level Directory>\bin\x86_win32 Test this by checking that this command prints out the omniidl help:
omniidl -u
- A fairly recent version of GNU make for Windows (3.78.1 or above).
Download it from http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/ or Google for `gnu make
windows'. The `make.exe' also needs to be in the PATH. For example, you
could copy it into your C:\winnt directory. The following command should
show version text:
make --help2. Preparation
- Copy the file `config.h' from this directory to: <omniEvents Top-Level Directory>\src\config.h
- Copy the file `config.mk' from this directory to: <omniEvents Top-Level Directory>\config.mk
- Edit `config.mk' to set the values of variables:
OMNIORB_BASE - full path to omniORB top-level directory.
OMNIORB_LIBS - libraries provided by omniORB.
OMNIEVENTS_BASE - full path to omniEvents top-level directory.3. Compile
Open a command window, and `cd' to the omniEvents top-level directory. The following command builds omniEvents:
make
4. Use it
See the notes for Windows Users in the main README file for important guidelines on how to use omniEvents on Windows.
