Please note that this source code can still be compiled on Windows
operating systems.  The changes made to the source only come into
effect when compilation is being done on Linux.

files.  These are HTML and plaintext versions of the article

The body of the article discusses the code changes that need to be
made for Linux compilation.  Those changes have already been applied
to the source code found in this archive.  The article also discusses
some of the problems (and solutions) that might arise when trying to
compile the Standard SDK under Linux.  It is advisable to read through
the article, paying special attention to the introduction and
conclusion areas.
