  21 To Build uresb on Windows
  22     1.  Install and build ICU
  23     2.  In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\uresb\uresb.sln
  24     3.  Choose a Debug or Release build.
  25     4.  Build.
  26
  27 To Run on Windows
  28     1.  Start a command shell window
  29     2.  Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
  30             set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
  31         (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
  32     3.  cd into the uresb directory, e.g.
  33             cd c:\icu\source\samples\uresb\debug
  34     4.  Run it  (with a locale name, ex. english)
  35             uresb  en
  36     WARNING: The .txt files must be in the same directory as the executable, which is not the case by default on some systems.
  37
  38 To Build on Unixes
  39     1.  Build ICU.
  40         Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
  41         using the --prefix option.  The steps to build ICU will look something
  42         like this:
  43            cd <icu directory>/source
  44            runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
  45            gmake all
  46
  47     2.  Install ICU,
  48            gmake install
  49
  50     3.  Compile
  51            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uresb
  52            gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory) ICU_PATH=<icu source directory>
  53
  54  To Run on Unixes
  55            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uresb
  56
  57            gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory>  check
  58                -or-
  59
  60            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  61            uresb
  62
  63
  64  Note:  The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
  65         If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
  66         the variable that is used there.  LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
  67         for Linux and Solaris.
