4.4 Running the Examples

This section describes the running of the video store tutorials in detail, including the purpose of each tutorial, its inputs and outputs. For the bulkcopy example, simply follow the instructions in Section 3.3.

4.4.1 Populate Your Database

From the command line, run tutsetup.exe to create all dependent database objects for the tutorials. File setuperr.txt reports any errors that occur during setup.

4.4.2 Run the Tutorials

To run the tutorials, enter the executable name in a command prompt window.

Table 6 contains a list of the video store tutorials, their related files, and a description of their content. Filenames containing the word out give the output of the tutorial program. Filenames containing the word err contain error messages.

Input files required by the tutorials and generated output files are placed in the <buildspace>\examples\<module>\12d directory.
