<li id="GUID-50180DE5-DAE7-5C1A-A59C-01A9CC76DADE"><p>You can build 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
