    For newbies to cppunit-1.11.0 and Visual Studio 2003:

    Old Instructions:

    Frequently Asked Questions: See doc/FAQ

    At the current time, the only supported WIN32 platform is
    Microsoft Visual C++. You must have VC++ 6.0 at least.

    Quick Steps to compile & run a sample using the GUI TestRunner:
    - Open examples/examples.dsw in VC++ (contains all the samples).
      VC7 will ask you if you want to convert, anwser 'yes to all'.
    - Make HostApp the Active project
    - Compile
    - in VC++, Tools/Customize.../Add-ins and macro files/Browse...
    - select the file lib/TestRunnerDSPlugIn.dll and press ok to register
      the add-ins (double-click on failure = open file in VC++).
    - Run the project

      Sure, but it doesn't build the various flavors of DLLs and libs. (You don't have to make HostApp the active project, either; the same things will be built either way). The old instructions are right(er).
