46How to Build:
47
48The (brute-force) builder is [.packages.vms]build_vms.com. Comments in
49this procedure describe various optional parameters which enable or
50disable optional program features, or which control the build in other
51ways. Product files (.EXE, .H, .LIS, .MAP, .OBJ, .OLB, ...) should be
52produced in an architecture-specific subdirectory under this directory
53([.ALPHA], [.IA64], [.VAX]).
54
55 Example build commands:
56
57 @ [.packages.vms]build_vms.com CLEAN
58 @ [.packages.vms]build_vms.com LARGE LDAP
59 submit /noprint [.packages.vms]build_vms.com /param = (LARGE, LDAP)

62Other Notes:
63
64The test suites are not supported as of 7.11.0.
65
66The curlmsg.sdl and curlmsg.h files are generated from curlmsg.msg.
67This is not done automatically, since the .MSG file is a hand edit
68of the relevant stuff from the curl.h file. If you want to do this
69yourself you'll need the SDL package from the freeware collection.
