In this document we use <database> to refer to the name of the database
system you would like to use. Valid values for <database> are:

  'mysql' - The MySQL database system

Prerequisites
=============
  
  - odb                http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/
  - libodb             http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/
  - libodb-tracer      http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/
  - libodb-<database>  http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/  

Building on UNIX
================

The following build instructions are for the Linux/UNIX/Mac OS X
operating systems as well as for Cygwin and MinGW on Windows.

The standard autotools-based build system is used on these platforms. 
After unpacking the source code archive, change to the odb-tests
package directory (referred to as odb-tests/ from now on) and run
the configure script, for example:

./configure --database <database>

To see the available configuration options run configure with --help:

./configure --help

The required --database option specifies the database system you would
like to use.

The configure script expects the directory where the ODB compiler
binary is installed to be in the executable search path (the PATH
environment variable). If that's not the case, you can use the ODB
configure variable to specify the path to the ODB compiler, for
example:

./configure ODB=/opt/odb/bin/odb

If the ODB compiler is not installed and you would like to run it
from its build directory instead, you can use the --with-odb configure
option to specify the build directory, for example:

./configure --with-odb=/tmp/odb

The configure script also expects the libodb , libodb-tracer, and 
libodb-<database> headers and libraries to be installed in a directory
where the C++ compiler and linker will search for them by default
(normally /usr and /usr/local). If these libraries are installed in
other directories, you can use the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS configure
variables to specify their locations, for example:

./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/libodb/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/libodb/lib

If these libraries are not installed and you would like to use their 
build directories instead, you can use the --with-libodb, 
--with-libodb-tracer, and --with-libodb-<database> configure options
to specify their locations, for example:

./configure --with-libodb=/tmp/libodb

For each <database> value the configure script has a set of options in
the form --with-<database>-* that allow you to specify various database
system parameters, such as the login name, password, and database name,
that should be used when running the tests. Run configure with 
--help to see the available options for your database.

As another example, the following configure command uses the specified
C++ compiler and compiles with optimization and without debug information:

./configure CXX=g++-4.5 CXXFLAGS=-O3

Once configuration is complete, run make to build the tests:

make

Once the build is completed successfully you can run the tests using
the check target:

make check


Building on Windows
===================

The following build instructions are for Windows using Microsoft Visual
Studio. If you would like to build odb-tests with GCC either using
Cygwin or MinGW, refer to the "Building on UNIX" section above.

The standard Visual Studio project and solution files are used on this
platform. The provided project files expect the directory where the ODB
compiler binary is installed to be in the executable search path (the
PATH environment variable). They also expect the libodb, libodb-tracer,
and libodb-<database> header and import library directories to be in
the VC++ Directories Include and Library search lists. See the INSTALL
files in the library packages for more information on how to setup the
VC++ Directories.

There are two ways to build the tests with Visual Studio. After unpacking
the source code archive, you can manually open three solution files located
in the tracer\, common\, and <database>\ directories in the odb-tests package
directory (referred to as odb-tests\ from now on). In the tracer\ directory
the solution file is named tracer-vc<N>.sln. In the common\ directory it
is named common-<database>-vc<N>.sln. And in the <database>\ directory it
is named <database>-vc<N>.sln. Here <N> is the version of Visual Studio
that you are using. Once each solution is open, select the desired build
configuration (Debug or Release) and platform (Win32 or x64) and build the
solution.

Alternatively, you can use the build.bat batch file located in the odb-tests\
directory to build all the solutions, for all the configurations and for all
the platforms automatically. The build.bat file has the following command
line interface:

build.bat <database> <N> [/Build|/Clean|/Rebuild] 

Where <N> is the version of Visual Studio that you are using. If no action
is specified, the default is /Build.

Once the build is completeed successfully, you can run all the tests using
the test.bat batch file located in the odb-tests\ directory.

Before you can run test.bat, you may need to adjust the database system
parameters, such as the login name, password, and database name, that
should be used when running the tests. To do this, edit the 
<database>.options and <database>-driver.bat files located in the
odb-tests\ directory. Once this is, done you can run the tests by
executing the following command from the command prompt:

test.bat <database>
