How do I build scrptrun and srtest?

-To use ScriptRun in your application, copy scrptrun.h and scrptrun.cpp -to your source directory, and use them just as if they were part of your -application. ScriptRun is so small that it's not worth making it into a -separate library. +To use the ScriptRun class in a Windows application, just include scrptrun.h +and scrptrun.cpp right out of the <icu>\source\extra\scrptrun directory +into your project. You'll also need to add the <icu>\source]extra\scrptrun +directory to the "Additional include directories" section of the "Preprocessor" +category on the "C/C++" tab in the project settings. +

On UNIX systems the simplest thing to do is to just copy scrptrun.h +and scrptrun.cpp into your source directory. If you want to use them from +<icu>/source/extra/scrpturn, it's a bit trickier: the default dependency +rules don't work on source files in a different directory. You need to +add separate dependency rules for scrptrun.o and scrptrun.d. See <icu>/source/samples/layout/Makefile.in +for an example of how to do this. You'll also have to add -I$(top_srcdir)/extra/scrptrun +to your compiler flags so that the compiler can find scrptrun.h. If your +application has to build on multiple UNIX platforms, it might be difficult +to wirte dependency rules that will work correctly on all platforms. In +that case, you're probably better off copying the scrpturn files to your +source directory.

Building srtest is easy, on Windows build the srtest workspace in <icu>\source\extra\scrptrun. On UNIX, connect to <top-build-dir>/extra/scrptrun and do "make all"
