readme.txt
==========
This subdirectory provides two examples: runRexxProgram and
stackOverflow. Both programs will compile and run on any platform
supported by ooRexx. Also included are 2 make files.
Makefile.windows
----------------
This is a nMake compatible make file for building the examples on
Windows. Provided your build environment is set up correctly for a
MicroSoft's Visual C++ compile, you should be able to compile the
examples without problem. Read the comments in Makefile.windows if
your have problems and / or to see how to build a debug version (the
default) or a non-debug version of the samples.
Makefile.unix
--------------
This make file should build the examples on any Unix-like system that
has gcc installed.
runRexxProgram
==============
This example creates an instance of the interpreter and uses it to call
a Rexx program. The Rexx program name is supplied on the command line.
For instance:
runRexxProgram HelloWorld.rex
Read the comments in the program code for additional details. A few
sample Rexx programs are provided, including backward.fnc
stackOverflow
=============
This example creates an instance of the interpreter and then
dynamically creates and calls a Rexx routine. Two routines are
provided. Execute stackOverflow without any arguments to use the first
routine and with one (any) argument to use the second routine. I.e.:
stackOverflow
or
stackOverflow 1
More details are provided in comments within the C++ code.
