Double-click this to get started. 16 ./ufortune.vcproj Windows MSVC project file. 17 ./Makefile Makefile for Unixes.

Install and build ICU 26 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ufortune\ufortune.sln 27 3. Choose a Debug or Release build. 28 4. Build. 29 30To Run on Windows 31 1. Start a command shell window 32 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g. 33 set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH% 34 (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.) 35 3. cd into the ufortune directory, e.g. 36 cd c:\icu\source\samples\ufortune\debug 37 4. Run it 38 ufortune 39 40 41To Build on Unixes 42 1. Build ICU. Specify an ICU install directory when running configure, 43 using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something 44 like this: 45 cd <icu directory>/source 46 runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options] 47 gmake all 48 49 2. Install ICU, 50 gmake install 51 52 3. Build the sample 53 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ufortune 54 export ICU_PREFIX= <icu install directory> 55 gmake 56 57 To Run on Unixes 58 cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ufortune 59 60 gmake check 61 or 62 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 63 ufortune 64 65 66 Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems. 67 If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of 68 the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name 69 for Linux and Solaris. 70
