IAC WriteSTL Project
--------------------

This directory ( iac_proj/writestl/ ) contains all the V code, source
code, documentation, and installation information for the IAC "WriteSTL"
project.

The directory should be placed into your existing project directory,
which should already contain the IAC Project File structure, i.e., the
iac_proj/, iac_lib/ and v/ directories.

The file INSTALL contains information on how to edit the existing IAC
files: a single line addition to the iac_proj/iac_proj.v file, to add
the new WriteSTL project, and additions to one or more of files in the
iac_lib/ directory, to link appropriate objects to the top-level IAC
library page.

Once the files have been correctly installed, the low-level module of the new
project may be compiled. If you opt to leave the process unspecified, it will
by default use the "express" process. Doing so means the module may be
compiled by using one of the following commands in the top-level directory of
your project (whilst AVS/Express is not running):

	base -comp_proc express -exit

or	make -f express.mk

	Using the 'make' command, requires that the express.mk file already
exists, and has been updated accordingly.

	If you modify the WriteSTL project, and elect to specify the process
as "user" or another user-defined process, then the module may be compiled
without having to exit the AVS/Express application. Use the following command
in the VCP to compile the module:

	$compile IAC_PROJ.WriteSTL.WriteSTLMods

	Users of the Developer's Edition may select the module in the 
relevant Templates library, and choose 'compile' from the Project menu.


Files
-----

The following files can be found in the iac_proj/sct2unif/ directory.

INSTALL		Contains installation instructions for editing the iac_proj.v
               	and iac_lib/ data_io.v and examples.v files. This file should
               	not be edited as the future installation script will use this
               	file.

writestl.v	Creates the IAC_PROJ.WriteSTL library.

wrstmods.v	Creates the WriteSTLMods library containing the module
		write_stl.

wrstmacs.v	Creates the WriteSTLMacs library containing the user macro
		writeSTL and the example application WriteSTLEg.

writestl.cxx	The C++ source code for the write_stl module.

doc_mod.html	HTML documentation for the write_stl module.

README		This file.


Generated Files
---------------

When the project is compiled, the following files will be generated. Once
completed, you may safely remove these files; any future recompilations
will regenerate these files.

gen.hxx		AVS/Express generated header file.

gen.cxx		AVS/Express generated source code.

writestl.o	Intermediate object file.
