- This file, MAKETIME.DOC, is primarily designed to assist you in recompiling
- WTIME. Instructions are given here for compilation using Borland
- C++ 3.0, Borland's Turbo C++ for Windows 3.0, Microsoft's C/C++ 7.0, and
- Microsoft's Quick C for Windows 1.00.
-
- It should not be difficult to port this code to other platforms, especially
- Borland C++ 2.0, Microsoft C 6.0, Microsoft C 5.1, and Zortech C++ 3.0.
- If you port to Zortech, you may have a bit of work to do with the various
- time functions (mktime(), _dos_settime(), _dos_setdate(), localtime()).

- WTime Complete File List
- ************************
- MAKETIME.DOC This file, which explains how to create WTIME.HLP
- and WTIME.EXE from the other files
- HELPPLAN.DOC Help tracker file, organizational tool
-
- WTIME.DOC WinWord 2.0 version of help file
- WTIME.RTF Help file in Rich Text Format
- WTIME.BMP WTime bitmap, used in help file
- WTIME.HPJ Help project file, used to make WTIME.HLP
- WTIME.HLP WTime Windows Help file
-
- WTIME.C The C source that implements WTime
- WTIME.H Header file for WTime, #included into CONFIG.DLG,
- CONFIG.RC and WTIME.C
- CONFIG.DLG Produced by the Dialog Editor, it's #included
- into WTIME.RC to create WTIME.RES
- WTIME.RC Resource script for WTime
- WTIME.ICO Icon file used in the WTime executable
- WTIME.DEF Definition file for WTime
- WTIME.EXE WTime Windows executable
-
- *********************************
- Compile instructions -- WTIME.HLP
- *********************************
-
- You need the following files to compile the help:
- WTIME.RTF
- WTIME.BMP
- WTIME.HPJ
- I used Microsoft's help compiler, version 3.00b. It's available if
- you GO MSL on CompuServe. It fixes problems older versions had with
- RTF files produced by WinWord 2.0.
-
- The command line to produce WTIME.HLP is simply
- HC WTIME.HPJ
- Note that you may have to change the 'ROOT' entry in WTIME.HPJ for
- the help compiler to run correctly.
-
- *********************************
- Compile instructions -- WTIME.EXE
- *********************************
-
- You need the following files to compile the executable program:
- WTIME.ICO
- WTIME.RC
- WTIME.DEF
- WTIME.H
- WTIME.C
- CONFIG.DLG
-
- *** QuickC for Windows Instructions ***
- * Start Quick C for Windows
- * Do Project|Open, select the directory your files are in, give the
- project a name (like WTIME.MAK), and click OK, answer 'Y'es to create
- * In the Edit dialog box, change file type to All Files (*.*), then
- double click on WTIME.C, WTIME.RC and WTIME.DEF, click OK
- * Ensure Options|Project is set to Windows EXE. You can change anything
- else around you want, like memory model, optimizations, etc.
- * Choose Project|Rebuild all. When the compile's done, WTIME.EXE is
- ready to go
-
- *** Microsoft C 7 Instructions ***
- * Start PWB
- * Do Project|New Project, select the directory your files are in and
- name your project (like C:\MYWTIME\WTIME to put it into the C:\MYWTIME
- directory and call it WTIME), then set the project template for
- C runtime support and Windows EXE, then select OK to get rid of the
- New Project dialog box
- * In the Edit Project box, double click on WTIME.C, WTIME.RC and
- WTIME.DEF, click on Save List
- * Select Project|Rebuild All. When the compile's done, WTIME.EXE is
- ready to go. If you want to run it from PWB, don't forget to start
- WXServer from the Program Manager
-
- *** Turbo C++ for Windows Instructions ***
- * Open a DOS window and change into the directory where your files
- are stored. Enter this command line:
- RC -r WTIME.RC
- * Start TCW (comes with Borland C++ 3.0, or available by itself)
- * Do Project|Open project, choose the directory your files are in
- and type a project name (WTIME.PRJ will do), click OK
- * Choose Project|Add item... In the File Name box, type *.* and hit
- Enter, then double click on WTIME.C, WTIME.RC and WTIME.DEF, then
- click the Done button
- * Click Options|Application... and ensure the current settings include
- linker output as Windows EXE, prolog/epilog as Windows all functions
- exportable, model can be anything (I used small), and SS Equals DS
- (default for memory model). Click OK when that's all right.
- * Select Compile|Build all. You are *not* done when the Compile Status
- box says Success. Click OK, then go back to your DOS box and enter
- this command line:
- RC -t WTIME.RES WTIME.EXE
- Now the program is ready to go, and can be run from TCW by
- pressing Control-F9
-
- *** Borland C++ 3.0 Instructions ***
- * Start BC
- * Do Project|Open project, get your complete path and filename into the
- top line of the dialog box (C:\MYWTIME\WTIME.PRJ is fine), then click
- on OK
- * Select Project|Add item..., enter *.* in the Name box and hit Enter,
- then double click on WTIME.C, WTIME.RC and WTIME.DEF, then click Done
- * Under Options|Application..., select Windows App and hit OK
- * Select Compile|Build all. When the compile is done, the program is ready
- to go. You cannot start WTIME.EXE from BC, even if you're running BC
- in a window under Windows. Do a Program Manager File|Run, or run TDW
