Introduction
------------

This demo shows the integration of IceStorm into the chat application
to provide support for scalable chat rooms.

This demo application was tested under Windows XP and Fedora Core 3
using the Ice 2.1.1 binary distribution (see
http://www.zeroc.com/download.html).

Build Instructions
------------------

These build instructions assume that you have installed a binary
distribution of Ice 2.1.1.

Under Windows, you must first correctly configure your build
environment according to the directions in the README that comes with
the Ice 2.1.1 binary distribution. In addition, you need to set the
environment variable ICE_HOME to point to the root of your Ice
installation. For example, do the following:

Start/Control Panel/System. Select the Advanced Tab, then Environment
Variables. In the top section "User variables for <user>", select
New. 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 the
top_srcdir variable correctly. It must point to the top of the demo
hierarchy. For Fedora Core 3, if you have installed the Ice 2.1.1
RPMs, this will be set correctly already.

Execution Instructions
