TCXL is part of IDC's TesSeRact Development Tools series of programmer's
products.
Installation
STEP 1.......BUILD BASE DIRECTORY
The Shareware Version of the TCXL User Interface Development System is
normally distributed on diskette or in a compressed archive.
If you received a compressed archive, either from a BBS or from a Disk
Vendor, follow the instructions provided to extract these files into a
"\TCXL55" directory. Then skip to Step 2.
If you received a diskette either directly from IDC or from another source,
put the diskette in your drive, change to the root directory of the drive
you wish to install TCXL on, and give the command:
A:COPYTCXL A
or
B:COPYTCXL B
depending, of course, on which drive you install from. COPYTCXL will
create a directory called "\TCXL55", and will copy a series of self-
extracting archive files into the directory.
In your TCXL55 directory, there will be a file called FILES.CXL. Verify
that all the files described in FILES.CXL are actually present. If not,
contact whoever supplied you with your copy of TCXL.
Please note that Innovative Data Concepts normally only provides the small
model libraries for shareware distribution. If you need the large model
libraries to fully evaluate the product, contact either IDC or one of our
foreign distributors. If you receive this diskette from IDC, the charge
will be $5.00 within the US, $7.00 in Canada and Mexico, and $10.00 to
other locations. Our distributors may have other pricing policies --
contact them for more information.
STEP 2.......RUN START.BAT
Once the files are in your TCXL55 directory, you are now able to actually
install the product. Run the START.BAT file that is now in your TCXL55
directory. This will extract the header files and libraries, and give you
the option to extract the documentation. All necessary subdirectories will
automatically be created.
The libraries are are in different directories depending upon which
compiler you are using. They are listed below with the letter 'x' inserted
to indicate where the memory model should be ('s','m','c', and 'l' for
small, medium, compact and large respectively).
Compiler Library
------------------------------------
MSC 6 TCXL\M6\TCXLMS6x.LIB
QC 2.5 same as above
MSC 5.1 TCXL\M5\TCXLMS5x.LIB
QC before 2.5 same as above
TC 2 / TC++ TCXL\TC\TCXLTCx.LIB
Zortech C++ TCXL\ZTC\TCXLZTx.LIB
The 'x' above represents one of the letters s, m, c or l.
STEP 3.......COMPILE/LINK DEMO
At the completion of START.BAT, you will be given a pair of environment
variables to create: TCXL_A and TCXL_C. Follow the directions, and add
these two variables using the DOS SET command.
Next, change to the \TCXL55\DEMO directory. Depending on the source of
your copy of TCXL, a compiled demonstration program may or may not be
provided. To create a demo program, execute the MAKEDEMO.BAT file. This
will compile/link the TCXL Demonstration Program using the default options.
