Building the C++MW Ambassador and direct program:
There should be two makefiles included here.  The Linux
version is called makefile and the Windows version is
called makefile.mcr.  When building on Windows, rename
makefile.mcr to just makefile.  If you're using a big-
endian machine, add -DBIG_ENDIANS to the CPPFLAGS in 
the makefile.

There are two programs to be built: the C++MW Ambassador
(cmwa) and the command line interface (direct).  On 
Windows the names are wincmwa and windirect.
After building the programs, start the cmwa like this:

./cmwa cmwa.cfg

or 

.\wincmwa cmwa.cfg

There's no wincmwa.cfg -- the same file works on
both platforms.  After starting the cmwa run the 
direct program like this:

./direct 14 /home/brian/src/cmwa  direct.cfg

.\windirect 14 \users\wood\src\cmwa direct.cfg

14 is an account number.  Substitute your account
number there.  A directory is given next and will
be used to find the files you're using.
There's no windirect.cfg -- direct.cfg works on
both platforms.  Direct.cfg refers to direct.mdl.
(I use a .mdl extension to indicate a Middle file.  See 
http://webEbenezer.net/userdoc.html for more
information on Middle files.)  Once you have 
built direct, I suggest making copies of direct.cfg
and direct.mdl in a separate directory and then
modifying the copies according to your software needs.


Accounts
An account is needed to use the command line interface 
of the C++ Middleware Writer.  When an account is 
created, a directory on the server is associated with that 
account.  That directory is reused with each request and 
only the input files that have changed since your last 
request are sent.  Cmwa.cfg refers to an Account-Number.
Update cmwa.cfg with the account numbers and passwords
you will be using. This page is used to set up accounts --

Troubleshooting
If you find that you're having problems working with the
C++ Middleware Writer, the first thing to try is downloading 
the C++MW Ambassador source/archive again and rebuilding the 
software.

And last but not least, thank you for using the software.
