Double-click this to get started. ucnv.vcproj Windows MSVC project file To Build ucnv on Windows 1. Install and build ICU 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ucnv\ucnv.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 ufortune directory, e.g. cd c:\icu\source\samples\ucnv\debug 4. Run it ucnv WARNING: The .bin and .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. Build set the variable ICU_PREFIX= gmake all To Run on Unixes cd /source/samples/ucnv gmake check -or- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH convsamp 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.
