General Build Procedure

Use the following procedure to develop your distributed application:

1. Install the RPC SDK for your platform. For more information on how to install RPC, see Installing the RPC Programming Environment.
2. Develop the IDL file (and optional ACF) that specifies the interface.
3. Develop the C-language source files that implement and call the interface.
4. Generate C-language stub files by compiling the IDL file and optional ACF with the MIDL compiler.
5. Compile the C-language source and stub files with the C compiler.
6. Link the object files with the RPC import libraries for your platform.
7. Run the client and server distributed applications.
