Summary:
The recommended installation procedure for version 3.1 of the
Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) consists of the
following five steps:
1. Install the final retail release of the Windows graphical operating
environment, version 3.1.
2. Do not install the Windows SDK over another version of the Windows
SDK. The Windows SDK installation procedure is not designed to
update a previous version. Note: The Windows SDK version 3.1 can
create applications compatible with Windows 3.0. For more
information, see Chapter 3 of the "Microsoft Windows Software
Development Kit: Getting Started" manual for version 3.1, starting
on page 29.
If multiple (more than one) versions of the SDK are installed on the
same machine, each must be installed in a separate directory tree.
A pair of batch files that change the PATH, INCLUDE, and LIB
environment variables appropriately for the two versions of the SDK
are also very helpful.
3. Make sure enough hard disk space is available. The amount of space
required depends on the components installed and ranges between 9.6
and 24.3 megabytes (MB) of space. The program requires an
additional 4 MB of free space for scratch files created in the
installation process. The SDK installation program does not copy
any files unless it detects enough free hard-disk space for a
successful installation.
4. Run the SDK installation program to install the final retail
release of the Windows 3.1 SDK. For more information on this
procedure, see Chapter 1 of the "Microsoft Windows SDK: Getting
Started" manual.
5. If the Windows SDK version 3.1 is used with the Microsoft C
Optimizing Compiler, version 6.0, install the C run-time libraries
and header files from the disk labeled "Microsoft C 6.0 Run-time
Libraries" provided with the SDK. To install the libraries, place
the disk into a drive and run the INSTALL.BAT file on the disk. For
more information on this procedure, see page 3 of the "Microsoft
Windows SDK: Getting Started" manual.
