- HELLO
-
-
- The HELLO program is a client/server implementation of the classic "Hello,
- world" program.
-
- FILES
- =====
-
- The directory samples\rpc\hello contains the following files for
- building the sample distributed application HELLO:
-
- File Description
-
- README.TXT Readme file for the HELLO sample
- HELLO.IDL Interface definition language file
- HELLO.ACF Attribute configuration file
- HELLOC.C Client main program
- HELLOS.C Server main program
- HELLOP.C Remote procedures
- MAKEFILE Nmake file to build for Windows NT or Windows 95
- 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 already set for you:
-
- 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 helloc.exe (client) and
- hellos.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 helloc.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 hello.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:
-
- hellos
-
- On the client, enter:
-
- net start workstation
- helloc
-
- 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:
-
- helloc -?
-
- For a listing of switches available from the server
- program, enter:
-
- hellos -?
