13 ubreak.c Main source file in C
14 break.sln Windows MSVC workspace. Double-click this to get started.
15 break.vcproj Windows MSVC project file

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