+= How to build ruby using Visual C++
+
+== Requirement
+
+(1) Windows XP or later.
+
+(2) Visual C++ 6.0 or later. (strongly recommended VC++ 10 or later)
+
+ Note: if you want to build x64 or ia64 version, use native compiler for
+ x64/ia64.
+
+(3) Please set environment variable (({INCLUDE})), (({LIB})), (({PATH}))
+ to run required commands properly from the command line.
+
+ Note: building ruby requires following commands.
+ * nmake
+ * cl
+ * lib
+ * dumpbin
+
+(4) If you want to build from SVN source, following commands are required.
+ * bison
+ * sed
+ * ruby 1.8 or later
+
+(5) Enable Command Extension of your command line. It's the default behavior
+ of cmd.exe. If you want to enable it explicitly, run cmd.exe with /E:ON
+ option.
+
+== How to compile and install
+
+(1) Execute win32\configure.bat on your build directory.
+ You can specify the target platform as an argument.
+ For example, run `((%configure --target=i686-mswin32%))'
+ You can also specify the install directory.
+ For example, run `((%configure --prefix=<install_directory>%))'
+ Default of the install directory is /usr .
+ The default ((|<PLATFORM>|)) is `(({i386-mswin32}))'.
+
+(2) Change ((|RUBY_INSTALL_NAME|)) and ((|RUBY_SO_NAME|)) in (({Makefile}))
+ if you want to change the name of the executable files.
+ And add ((|RUBYW_INSTALL_NAME|)) to change the name of the
+ executable without console window if also you want.
+
+(3) Run `((%nmake%))'
+
+(4) Run `((%nmake test%))'
+
+(5) Run `((%nmake install%))'
+
+== Icons
+
+Any icon files(*.ico) in the build directory, directories specified with
+((|icondirs|)) make variable and (({win32})) directory under the ruby
+source directory will be included in DLL or executable files, according
+to their base names.
+ $(RUBY_INSTALL_NAME).ico or ruby.ico --> $(RUBY_INSTALL_NAME).exe
+ $(RUBYW_INSTALL_NAME).ico or rubyw.ico --> $(RUBYW_INSTALL_NAME).exe
+ the others --> $(RUBY_SO_NAME).dll
+
+Although no icons are distributed with the ruby source or in the official
+site, you can use anything you like. For example, followings are written
+in Japanese, but you can download at least.
+
+* ((<URL:http://homepage1.nifty.com/a_nakata/ruby/>)) or
+ ((<icon itself|URL:http://homepage1.nifty.com/a_nakata/ruby/RubyIcon.ico>))
+
+== Build examples
+
+* Build on the ruby source directory.
+
+ ex.)
+ ruby source directory: C:\ruby
+ build directory: C:\ruby
+ install directory: C:\usr\local
+
+ C:
+ cd \ruby
+ win32\configure --prefix=/usr/local
+ nmake
+ nmake test
+ nmake install
+
+* Build on the relative directory from the ruby source directory.
+
+ ex.)
+ ruby source directory: C:\ruby
+ build directory: C:\ruby\mswin32
+ install directory: C:\usr\local
+
+ C:
+ cd \ruby
+ mkdir mswin32
+ cd mswin32
+ ..\win32\configure --prefix=/usr/local
+ nmake
+ nmake test
+ nmake install
+
+* Build on the different drive.
+
+ ex.)
+ ruby source directory: C:\src\ruby
+ build directory: D:\build\ruby
+ install directory: C:\usr\local
+
+ D:
+ cd D:\build\ruby
+ C:\src\ruby\win32\configure --prefix=/usr/local
+ nmake
+ nmake test
+ nmake install DESTDIR=C:
+
+* Build x64 version (requires native x64 VC++ compiler)
+
+ ex.)
+ ruby source directory: C:\ruby
+ build directory: C:\ruby
+ install directory: C:\usr\local
+
+ C:
+ cd \ruby
+ win32\configure --prefix=/usr/local --target=x64-mswin64
+ nmake
+ nmake test
+ nmake install
+
+== Bugs
+
+You can ((*NOT*)) use a path name that contains any white space characters as
+the ruby source directory, this restriction comes from the behavior of
+(({!INCLUDE})) directives of (({NMAKE})).
+((- you may call it a bug. -))
+
+You can build ruby in any directory including the source directory,
+except (({win32})) directory in the source directory.
+This is restriction originating in the path search method of (({NMAKE})).
