Introduction------------This demo shows the integration of IceStorm into the chat applicationto provide support for scalable chat rooms.This demo application was tested under Windows XP and Fedora Core 3using the Ice 2.1.1 binary distribution (seehttp://www.zeroc.com/download.html).Build Instructions------------------These build instructions assume that you have installed a binarydistribution of Ice 2.1.1.Under Windows, you must first correctly configure your buildenvironment according to the directions in the README that comes withthe Ice 2.1.1 binary distribution. In addition, you need to set theenvironment variable ICE_HOME to point to the root of your Iceinstallation. For example, do the following:Start/Control Panel/System. Select the Advanced Tab, then EnvironmentVariables. In the top section "User variables for <user>", selectNew. Create a new variable ICE_HOME with the value C:\Ice-2.1.1(assuming that you've installed Ice 2.1.1 in C:\Ice-2.1.1).Under UNIX, you must first edit the included Makefile and set thetop_srcdir variable correctly. It must point to the top of the demohierarchy. For Fedora Core 3, if you have installed the Ice 2.1.1RPMs, this will be set correctly already.Execution Instructions----------------------To run the demo, first start the IceStorm server:$ icebox --Ice.Config=config.icestorm.serviceIn a seperate window, start the chat server:$ serverIn a separate window, start the Glacier2 router:$ glacier2router --Ice.Config=config.glacier2In a separate window, start the client:$ client
