=head1 NAME
README.win32 - Parrot under Windows
=head1 SYNOPSIS
These are instructions for building the "native" port of Parrot under
Windows 2000/XP on the Intel x86 architecture.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Win32 "native" ports require no additional software to run but the
operating system. There should be other READMEs for (emulation)
systems that run on Win32, eg Cygwin.
Native compilers include:
Borland C++ (bcc) version xxx or later
Microsoft Visual C++ (cl) version 13.10.3077 or later
MinGW32 with GCC (gcc) version xxx or later
Intel C++ (icl) version 8.0.48 works
=head2 Setting Up Parrot
=over
=item Make
You need "nmake" to build Parrot under Windows. It should be
available via Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 or the Microsoft .NET
Framework SDK 1.1. The later can be downloaded from the Microsoft
.NET Framework Homepage L<http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/>.
=item Command Shell
The surest way to build it is on Windows NT/2000/XP, using the cmd shell.
=item ICU
Though Parrot comes with ICU, the build system is rather fragile, and
will not work for most people. Currently, the best way to use ICU is
to download the binary distribution from
L<http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/download/2.8/index.html>, unpack
it (say, into C:\usr\lib), add the bin directory to PATH, and tell
Configure.pl to use it.
mkdir C:\usr\lib
unzip icu-2.8-Win32_msvc7.zip -d C:\usr\lib
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\usr\lib\icu\bin
cd <parrot directory>
perl Configure.pl --icushared="C:\usr\lib\icu\lib\icudata.lib
C:\usr\lib\icu\lib\icuuc.lib" --icuheaders="C:\usr\lib\icu\include"
=item Borland C++
XXX
=item Microsoft Visual C++
Since mid April 2004, Visual C++ comes in two flavors. Microsoft
Visual Studio .NET 2003 (L<http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/>), which
includes the full blown IDE, and Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
(L<http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/>), which is a free
(but unsupported) package, containing only the basic compiler and
linker stuff.
Only Microsoft Visual Studio is currently known to work. XXX Add
