== Installing the SNAP Toolkit for use with WarpVision ==

Building he snaptv and snapov plugins requires access to some SNAP SDK headers and to n_ga.lib.

You can follow the directions that come with the SNAP SDK and build the full toolkit.
However, since only one library is required the following guide will get you there faster.

Unzip the contents of

  * snap_sdk_3.1-!r23-os2.zip
  * snap_sdk_3.1-!r23-src.zip
  * snap_sdk_3.1-!r23-util.zip

to a working directory preserving the paths.

Edit start-sdk.cmd

  Add definitions for SCITECH and SCITECH_LIB.
  Mine are

    {{{
    SET SCITECH=J:\sla_dev2\SDKs\snap
    SET SCITECH_LIB=J:\sla_dev2\SDKs\snap
    }}}

  Change the hardcoded references in

    {{{
    call C:\SCITECH\bin-os2\set-vars.cmd
    set DEFPATH=%SCITECH%\redist\release;%DEFPATH%
    call C:\SCITECH\bin-os2\wc11-o32.cmd
    }}}

  to read

    {{{
    call %SCITECH%\bin-os2\set-vars.cmd
    set DEFPATH=%SCITECH%\redist\release;%DEFPATH%
    call %SCITECH%\bin-os2\ow10-o32.cmd
    }}}

  This assumes you will be using OpenWatcom.

  REM out the statement

    {{{
    cd %SCITECH%\EXAMPLES\SNAP\GRAPHICS
    }}}

Edit bin-os2\set-vars.cmd

  Change the hardcoded paths in the following statements

    {{{
    SET VA3_PATH=C:\C\IBMC30
    SET WC10_PATH=C:\C\WC10
    SET WC11_PATH=C:\C\WC11
    SET OW10_PATH=C:\C\OW10
    SET BC2_PATH=C:\C\BCOS2
    SET EMX_PATH=C:\C\EMX
    SET VA365_PATH=C:\ibmcxxo
    SET OS2TK_PATH=C:\TOOLKIT
    }}}

  to point to your local paths. REM out or ignore unused items.
  Point the OW10_PATH variable to your OpenWatcom installation.
  Ow10-o32.cmd is sufficiently generic to be used with all the known OpenWatcom versions.

Build n_ga.lib

  From the SNAP SDK root directory, run

    {{{
    start-sdk.cmd
    cd src
    dmake targets\snap
    set CHECKED=1
    start-sdk.cmd
    dmake -u targets\snap
    }}}

  This should build the both release and debug versions of n_ga.lib.  The -u option forces a full rebuild.
