the example from your IDE or the command line. </p> <p>If you use

an IDE, import the <filepath>bld.inf</filepath> file of the example

into your IDE, and use the build command of the IDE. </p> <p>If you

use the command line, open a command prompt, and set the current directory

to the source code directory of the example. You can then build the

example with the SBSv1 build tools with the following commands: </p> <p><userinput>bldmake bldfiles</userinput> </p> <p><userinput>abld
