1Installation on Woe32 (WinNT/2000/XP, Win95/98/ME):
2
3- Requires MS Visual C/C++ 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0 or 7.0.
4
5  Note that binaries created with MSVC 7.0 should not be distributed: They
6  depend on a closed-source library 'msvcr70.dll' which is not normally part
7  of a Woe32 installation. You cannot distribute 'msvcr70.dll' with the
8  binaries - this would be a violation of the GPL and of the Microsoft EULA.
9  You can distribute the binaries without including 'msvcr70.dll', but this
10  will cause problems for users that don't have this library on their system.
11  Therefore it is not recommended. This problem does not occur with MSVC 6.0
12  and earlier.
13
14- Cannot build in a separate directory.
15
16- Build instructions:
17
18   Make sure that the MSVC4.0 or MSVC5.0 or MSVC6.0 or MSVC7.0 utilities
19   ("cl" etc.) are found in PATH. In a typical MSVC6.0 installation, this
20   can be achieved by running
21        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\bin\vcvars32.bat
22   In a typical MSVC7.0 installation, it can be achieved by running
23        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat
24
25   Decide which compilation model you will use:
26     MFLAGS=-ML (the default)  Single-threaded, statically linked - libc.lib
27     MFLAGS=-MT                Multi-threaded, statically linked  - libcmt.lib
28     MFLAGS=-MD                Multi-threaded, dynamically linked - msvcrt.lib
29
30   For shared library (DLL):
31
32        nmake -f Makefile.msvc DLL=1 MFLAGS=-MD
33
34   For static library:
35
36        nmake -f Makefile.msvc
37
38   If you want to build both the shared and static library, you have to
39   unpack the libiconv sources twice in different directories. Don't mix
40   the two formats; you cannot use the libcharset.h and localcharset.h
41   generated for the static library together with the shared library or
42   vice versa.
43
44- Installation:
45
46   Manual minimal installation:
47
48      Copy include/libcharset.h and include/localcharset.h to your header
49      file repository.
50      Copy lib/charset.lib to your library repository.
51      If you built for shared library, also copy lib/charset.dll into one of
52      the directories listed in your PATH, or into the directory containing
53      the executable which shall make use of libcharset.
54
55   Complete and automatic installation:
56
57         nmake -f Makefile.msvc DLL=1 MFLAGS=-MD install prefix=InstallBaseDirectory
58      or
59         nmake -f Makefile.msvc install prefix=InstallBaseDirectory
