4 This distribution of YAZ includes makefiles that works with Visual
5 C++ version 5 and 6. The makefile is located in sub directory 'win'.
7 If you wish to make modifications to the make process you should
8 edit makefile before proceeding. For example, a DEBUG version of YAZ
9 can be build by modifying the line 'DEBUG=0' to 'DEBUG=1' in the
12 Run nmake in that directory (in a Command prompt for example). Eg:
16 Make sure that the environment variables PATH, LIB and INCLUDE are
17 set properly. They *should* be set by the Visual C++ installation.
18 Programs cl.exe, link.exe and others must be found in the PATH. The
19 standard includes files, standard libraries must be found in INCLUDE
22 The following components are build by the nmake process:
24 yaz.dll - This DLL is made of the source in all sub directories except
25 for 'server', 'client' and 'ztest'. To export public functions
26 the header files contain the modifier YAZ_EXPORT which is
27 defined in yconfig.h. The value of this modifier,
28 __declspec(dllexport), is probably specific to Visual C++.
30 server.lib - The server library, which includes the source from
31 'server'. Unlike the UNIX version, the server library is
34 yaz-client.exe - A Z39.50 client console application. It is linked with
35 the import library yaz.lib. This application searches for yaz.dll
38 yaz-ztest.exe - The Z39.50 test server as a console application. It is
39 linked with the import library yaz.lib and the regular library
40 server.lib. When running yaz-ztest make sure it is able to find
41 the record test files dummy-records, dummy-grs, and dummy-words
42 in the current directory.
44 As an option ztest may be installed as an NT service
45 (not Windows 95). Use 'ztest -install <otherargs>' to install
46 it and 'ztest -remove <otherargs>' to remove it again. Since
47 NT runs the service program in some weird directory, such as
48 \winnt\system32, it's probably a good idea to use the option
49 '-w' to change to some other directory. For example
51 yaz-ztest -install -w d:\proj\yaz\ztest -l ztest.out tcp:@:210
53 which specifies both working directory (d:\proj\yaz\ztest)
54 and a log file (ztest.out). The server is started on port 210.
56 After successful compilation all executables and DLL's are located
57 in sub YAZ\BIN. Libraries are located in YAZ\LIB.
