20* Where can I find more sample code?
21
22 - The "uconv" utility is a full-featured command line application.
23 It is normally built with ICU, and is located in icu/source/extra/uconv
24
25 - The "icu-demos" contains other applications and libraries not
26 included with ICU. You can check it out from https://github.com/unicode-org/icu-demos
27 using github clone. See the README file for additional information.

30* How do I build the samples?
31
32 - See the Readme in each subdirectory
33
34 To build all samples at once:
35
36 Windows MSVC:
37 - build ICU
38 - open 'all' project file in 'all' subdirectory
39 - build project
40 - sample executables will be located in /x86/Debug folders of each sample subdirectory
41
42 Unix: - build and install (make install) ICU
43 - be sure 'icu-config' is accessible from the PATH
44 - type 'make all-samples' from this directory
45 (other targets: clean-samples, check-samples)
46 Note: 'make all-samples' won't work correctly in out of source builds.
