Installation on Win32 systems
-----------------------------

If you use AspectC++ in a GNU Cygwin Environment or with the GNU Mingw
compiler under Window, refer to the "README" file. Everything will be
as described there.

If you use a non-g++ compiler several steps has to be done manually
(this is NOT recommended):

1. Unpack the zip archive 

For the following examples we asume that the distribution will be
placed under C:\AC (<instdir>)

2. create a parser configuration file
   - use a "-D<macro>" line for predefined macros and
   - use a "-I<path>" line for built-in compiler include paths

3. define an environment variable PUMA_CONFIG. Its contents should be
   the name of the configuration file.

The ac++ binary itself is statically linked and should be
ready-to-run.


Examples
--------

To play with the examples type "make" in the top level directory to
run ac++ on the examples under the examples/ directory. After that,
the examples are automatically executed. To run a specific example,
change to the directory and type "make run" to start the generated binary.


Documentation
-------------
