YAZ++ is shipped with "makefiles" for the NMAKE tool that comes with Microsoft Visual Studio. Visual Studio 2013 (12.0) has been tested.
Start a command prompt and switch to the sub directory
WIN where the file makefile
is located. Customize the installation by editing the
makefile file (for example by using notepad).
The following summarizes the most important settings in that file:
DEBUGIf set to 1, the software is compiled with debugging libraries (code generation is multi-threaded debug DLL). If set to 0, the software is compiled with release libraries (code generation is multi-threaded DLL).
YAZ_DIRSpecifies the directory of the YAZ source.
When satisfied with the settings in the makefile, type
nmake
If the nmake command is not found on your system,
you probably haven't defined the environment variables required to
use that tool. To fix that, find and run the batch file
vcvars32.bat. You need to run it from within
the command prompt, or set the environment variables "globally";
otherwise it doesn't work.
If you wish to recompile YAZ++ (for example if you modify
settings in the makefile) you can delete the
object files, etc., by running.
nmake clean
The following files are generated upon successful compilation:
bin/yazpp5.dll
YAZ++ DLL . Includes ZOOM C++ as well.
For the debug version lib/yazpp5d.dll
is created instead.
lib/yazpp5.lib
Import library for yazpp5.dll.
For the debug version lib/yazpp5d.lib
is created instead.
