Double-click this to get started. 11 ustring.vcproj Windows MSVC project file 12 13To Build ustring on Windows 14 1. Install and build ICU 15 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ustring\ustring.sln 16 3. Choose a Debug or Release build. 17 4. Build. 18 19To Run on Windows 20 1. Start a command shell window 21 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g. 22 set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH% 23 (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.) 24 3. cd into the ustring directory, e.g. 25 cd c:\icu\source\samples\ustring\debug 26 4. Run it 27 ustring 28 29To Build on Unixes 30 1. Build ICU. 31 Specify an ICU install directory when running configure, 32 using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something 33 like this: 34 cd <icu directory>/source 35 runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options] 36 gmake all 37 38 2. Install ICU, 39 gmake install 40 41 3. Compile 42 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ustring 43 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory) 44 45 To Run on Unixes 46 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ustring 47 48 gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory> check 49 -or- 50 51 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 52 ustring 53 54 55 Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems. 56 If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of 57 the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name 58 for Linux and Solaris. 59 60 61
