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.
