Run the Demo program. |
A sample Microsoft Visual C++ makefile, called makefile, is provided to build the sample program. Use this makefile as a basis for constructing makefiles for your own applications.
Note: Depending on how you installed
Visual C++, the INCLUDE, LIB, and PATH environment variables may
not be automatically set when you install MSDEV. If they are not
set, you will have to set them manually or run the following to set
them before building any user programs.
\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat
When you run the demo program, it will generate an alarm, then reset it.
Build the Demo Program
From the CIMPLICITY Configuration cabinet for your project, select Command Prompt from the Tools menu.
This will ensure that your environment variables (in particular %BSM_ROOT% and %SITE_ROOT%) are set correctly.
In the Command Prompt window, issue the following commands:
<drive>:
cd %BSM_ROOT%\api\am_api
where <drive> is the disk where your CIMPLICITY software is installed.
If the environment variables are not set automatically, issue the following command to set them:
\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat
Now build the executable:
nmake
Run the Demo Program
The API process name must be stored in the PRCNAM environment variable for the program to run. The name is an arbitrary character string of up to 10 characters. To create PRCNAM, enter the following command in the Command Prompt window:
set PRCNAM=<name>
where <name> is the API process name.
To run the sample program, enter the following command in the Command Prompt window:
amaru_demo
