! More or less updated this text.
Notice have a common rules to build _all_ contribs
and _all_ accompanying test/util apps since at least
6-12 months, so most of it was not needed anymore.
It'd be interesting to make interviews with those
users who still cannot figure how to link apps, since
I'm out of ideas how it can be still blown off, or
what is the common blocking item in such cases.
My current guess is that they either don't know hbmk2,
or they copy it away from its location, or they copy
away tests from their original location.
As some rules of thumb / checklist:
0. download C compiler (mingw/msvc prefereed) (see links in INSTALL)
1. install C compiler
2. configure C compiler (as per INSTALL EXAMPLES section)
3. download dependencies (see links in INSTALL)
4. install dependencies
5. setup HB_WITH_* vars (as per INSTALL)
6. go to Harbour source root dir
7. build Harbour (as per INSTALL, usually: 'win-make' or 'make' command)
8. change dir to preferred tests or utils subdir inside
Harbour source tree ('cd contrib/hbmysql/tests').
9. issue command: '<path>hbmk2 test.prg'
(where <path> is the path to hbmk2 executable,
or nothing, if Harbour bin dir has been added to PATH)
10. remember to put involved .dll in PATH, or copy them next to
the executable.
And again: _delete_ HB_COMPILER envvar.
