Double-click this to get started. uresb.vcproj Windows MSVC project file resources.dsp Windows project file for resources resources.mak Windows makefile for resources root.txt Root resource bundle en.txt English translation sr.txt Serbian translation (cp1251) To Build uresb on Windows 1. Install and build ICU 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\uresb\uresb.sln 3. Choose a Debug or Release build. 4. Build. To Run on Windows 1. Start a command shell window 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g. set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH% (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.) 3. cd into the uresb directory, e.g. cd c:\icu\source\samples\uresb\debug 4. Run it (with a locale name, ex. english) uresb en WARNING: The .txt files must be in the same directory as the executable, which is not the case by default on some systems. To Build on Unixes 1. Build ICU. Specify an ICU install directory when running configure, using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something like this: cd /source runConfigureICU --prefix [other options] gmake all 2. Install ICU, gmake install 3. Compile cd /source/samples/uresb gmake ICU_PREFIX= To Run on Unixes cd /source/samples/uresb gmake ICU_PREFIX= check -or- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH uresb Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems. If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name for Linux and Solaris.
