However, there are comments +in the makefile to help you out, and there are not a lot of changes to make. +There are different options available, some of which are platform dependent. +For example, under Win32 you can compile the library as a .LIB or as a .DLL. +To change any of the defaults, edit the file ./mimepp/config.h. It's +probably a good idea to take a look at that file anyway. + +There are several makefiles available. Makefile.unx is a makefile for a +generic UNIX system. Makefile.vc is a makefile for Visual C++ 4 or 5. +Makefile.bc is a makefile for Borland C++ 5. + +If you are using the library on a non-UNIX system, such as Windows 3.1 or +Macintosh, you will probably need to change msgid.cpp. The function +DwMsgId::CreateDefault() needs to get the host name and the process ID to +create a msg-id. I put some conditional compilation macros in to support +Winsock, but I have not tested it under Windows 3.1. If you do not know how +to get your host name, you can set the static member DwMsgId::sHostName +before using the library functions. + +On a UNIX system: + +Typing 'make -f makefile.unx' will make the library libmimepp.a and the +example programs exampl01, exampl02, exampl03, exampl04, exampl05; +typing 'make lib' will make just the library. Finally, type 'make install +' to copy the include files to /usr/local/include/mimepp and the library +to /usr/local/lib. |
