This directory contains the files for the sample distributed application "doctor": File Description README.TXT Readme file for the DOCTOR sample DOCTOR.IDL Interface definition language file DOCTOR.ACF Attribute configuration file DOCTORC.C Client main program DOCTORS.C Server main program DOCTORP.C Remote procedures MAKEFILE Nmake file to build for NT MAKEFILE.DOS Nmake file to build for MS-DOS ------------------------------------------- BUILDING CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS NT OR WINDOWS 95: ------------------------------------------- The following environment variables should be set for you already. set CPU=i386 set INCLUDE=%SDKROOT%\h set LIB=%SDKROOT%\lib set PATH=%SDKROOT%\system32;%SDKROOT%\bin; Where %SDKROOT% is the root directory for the 32-bit Windows SDK. For mips, set CPU=mips For alpha, set CPU=alpha Build the sample distributed application: nmake cleanall nmake This builds the executable programs doctorc.exe (client) and doctors.exe (server). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- BUILDING THE CLIENT APPLICATION FOR MS-DOS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- After installing the Microsoft Visual C/C++ version 1.50 development environment and the 16-bit RPC SDK on a Windows NT or Windows 95 computer, you can build the sample client application from Windows NT or Windows 95. nmake -f makefile.dos cleanall nmake -f makefile.dos This builds the client application doctorc.exe. You may also execute the Microsoft Visual C/C++ compiler under MS-DOS. This requires a two step build process. Step One: Compile the .IDL files under Windows NT or Windows 95 nmake -a -f makefile.dos doctor.h Step Two: Compile the C sources (stub and application) under MS-DOS. nmake -f makefile.dos ------------------------------------------ RUNNING THE CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS ------------------------------------------ On the server, enter doctors On the client, enter net start workstation doctorc Note: The client and server applications can run on the same Microsoft Windows NT computer when you use different screen groups. Several command line switches are available to change settings for this program. For a listing of the switches available from the client program, enter doctorc -? For a listing of switches available from the server program, enter doctors -?
