These demos may be +built against a pre-existing Ice distribution. + +If you installed Ice from RPM packages, you can build the demos by +visiting each demo directory (e.g. demo, demoj, democs) and running +'gmake' or 'ant' as appropriate. The Ice for Python demos do not need +to be compiled. + +If you installed Ice from an Ice binary distribution or for source +distributions by running 'gmake install', you must set the ICE_HOME +environment variable to the location you installed Ice. You must also +tell your system where to find the Ice translators and shared libraries. +This is normally done through environment variables. On most systems +the translators should be in a directory in your PATH environment +variable. The shared libraries should be in a directory in your +system's shared library search path. This is usually done through a +system specific environment variable, such as LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux and +other UNIX variants), SHLIB_PATH (32 bit HP-UX) and LIBPATH (IBM AIX). +You can test whether you have configured your system properly by running +a Slice translator that was installed on your system. For example: + +myprompt> slice2cpp + +Without arguments, the translator will display some usage help +information. If you get a 'command not found' or 'libIce.so.2.1.0 not +found' or similar error, verify the files are in the expected location, +your environment variables are set properly and that you have the proper +permissions on these files. + +To verify ICE_HOME is set, simply echoing the environment variable works +on most systems. Assuming Ice is installed in /opt/Ice: + +myprompt> echo $ICE_HOME +/opt/Ice + +Once you've verified that you have your environment configured +correctly, you can build the demos by visiting each demo directory and +running 'gmake' or 'ant' as appropriate. The Ice for Python demos do +not need to be compiled. + +Running the Ice Demos +===================== + +You need to make some additional changes to your environment in order to +run the demos. + +Ice for C++ +----------- + +The C++ demos the Ice runtime and tools as well as several third party +libraries. If you have managed to build the C++ demos, you already have +your environment set up properly for the Ice runtime. However, Ice uses +other third party libraries such as OpenSSL that should also be +accessible. + +Ice for Java +------------ + +The Java demos require that you have the Ice.jar, the Ice ant tasks and +the Berkeley DB db.jar in your CLASSPATH. If Ice was installed from +RPMs, Ice.jar and the ant tasks are in /usr/lib/Ice-(the Ice version +number)/Ice.jar and /usr/lib/Ice-(the Ice version number)/ant, +respectively. Otherwise, Ice.jar and the ant tasks will be in the Ice +installation's lib and ant directories, respectively. + +Ice for C# +---------- + +To run the C# demos under Mono, you must include the library directory +containing the icecs.dll in your MONO_PATH environment variable. In an +RPM installation, the icecs.dll is installed in the /usr/lib directory. +It may otherwise be found in the lib directory in your Ice installation. + +Ice for Python +-------------- + +To run the Python demos, the Ice Python modules and the Ice Python +extension must be in the PYTHONPATH environment variable. You also need +to configure the ICEPY_HOME environment variable to indicate your Ice +for Python installation. If you installed Ice for Python from a Ice +binary distribtion, it should be the same as your ICE_HOME environment +variable. If you installed Ice for Python from the source distrbution, +you may have installed it in a directory other than the ICE_HOME +directory. + +For RPM installations, the enviroment variables should be: +ICEPY_HOME=/usr +PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib:/usr/lib/Ice-(the Ice version)/python:[other non-ice +components] + +For non-RPM installations, the environment variables should be: + +ICEPY_HOME=/opt/IcePy-(the Ice version) +PYTHONPATH=/opt/IcePy-(the Ice version)/lib:/opt/IcePy-(the Ice version)python: + [other non-ice components] + +-- or -- + +ICEPY_HOME=/opt/Ice-(the Ice version) +PYTHONPATH=/opt/Ice-(the Ice version)/lib:/opt/Ice-(the Ice version)python: + [other non-ice components] -This is a README that needs to go into the root of the demo distribution. |
