Win32 Build files
Win32 Installation Instructions
NeoStats for Windows requires Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2005.
It may or not build on other versions of Visual Studio.
Currently, Win32 versions of NeoStats appear to be stable, but for this
Release, a Debug Version is used. This means that when run, NeoStats
will open a console window and output large amounts of Debug
Information. Closing this window will result in NeoStats closing as
well.
Main build files:
neostatslibs.sln - Library solution.
neostats.sln - Main solution.
To Configure NeoStats, you must edit the neostats.conf file located in the
NeoStats installation directory, this is typically c:\Program Files\NeoStats
but if you change it during the setup, it will be in the location you
specify.
NeoStats requires that ActivePerl be installed before you compile,
and that the ActivePerl installation is located at c:\perl. If your
activeperl is located at a different location, you will have to
modify the INCLUDE and LIBRARY paths specifiec in the properties
of the neostats.sln solution.
Once you have edited the Configuration File, you may start NeoStats by
clicking on the NeoStats icon in your Start Menu. NeoStats will then
open the Console Window and place a icon in the taskbar. After that,
NeoStats will operate just like the Unix Version.
NeoStats depends on the libraries in the library solution. To build
NeoStats for Windows, load the library solution and select build
solution from the Build menu. Then load the neostats solution and
select build solution from the Build menu.
As 3rd party modules are released, we will provide Win32 installations
for those files as well.
The NeoStats Setup exe that we distribute NeoStats with also
contains the library and header files you need to compile other
modules. By default they are installed when you install NeoStats
and are located in the include and library directories of your
NeoStats installation. 3rd party modules (such as OPSB) are
setup to look in these directories when building, so if you
change the location of NeoStats installation then you will
need to modify the INCLUDE and LIBRARY paths for those
3rd party modules to point to the correct directory.
If you encounter any problems on Win32, please post the issues to our
Forums so we can investigate.
We hope that with future releases, you will be able to run NeoStats as
a service rather than as a program, but that is not currently implemented.
Thanks
The NeoStats Developers
