+1. Introduction
+===============
+Qpid-Cpp-Win-Sdk is a software development kit for users who wish
+to write code using the Qpid-Cpp program libraries in a Windows
+environment.
+
+This kit is distributed as two zip files:
+ qpid-cpp-x86-<version>.zip - projects and libraries for 32-bit
+ x86 and Win32 development.
+ qpid-cpp-x64-<version>.zip - projects and libraries for 64-bit
+ x64 development.
+
+For additional software or information on the Qpid project go to:
+http://cwiki.apache.org/qpid/
+
+
+2. Prerequisites
+================
+A. Visual Studio 2008. This kit was produced by Visual Studio 2008
+ and example solutions and projects are in Visual Studio 2008
+ format.
+
+B. MSVC 9.0 runtime libraries. Copies of the MSVC90 redistributable
+ runtime libraries and manifest are included in the /bin directory.
+
+C. Boost version 1_39. The Boost libraries required by this SDK are
+ included in the /bin directory. Both Debug and Release variants
+ are present.
+
+
+3. Kit contents
+===============
+The kit directories hold the content described here.
+
+ \bin
+ The precompiled binary (.dll and .exe) files and
+ the associated debug program database (.pdb) files.
+ Boost library files.
+ MSVC90 runtime library files.
+
+ \include
+ A directory tree of .h files.
+
+ \lib
+ The linker .lib files that correspond to files in /bin.
+
+ \docs
+ Apache Qpid C++ API Reference
+
+ \examples
+ A Visual Studio solution file and associated project files
+ to demonstrate using this SDK in unmanaged C++.
+
+ \dotnet_examples
+ A Visual Studio solution file and associated project files
+ to demonstrate using this SDK in C#.
+
+ \management
+ A python scripting code set for generating QMF data structures.
+
+ For more information on Qpid QMF go to:
+ https://cwiki.apache.org/qpid/qpid-management-framework.html
+
+The architectural relationships of the components in this SDK are
+illustrated here.

+4. Building dotnet_examples
+===========================
+
+From the \dotnet_examples directory launch the winsdk_dotnet_examples.sln
+solution file. In the platform pulldown list select "x86" or "x64" to
+match the development kit you are using. Then build the solution in the
+Debug configuration.
+
+The resulting executable programs may be run from within Visual Studio
+or stand-alone from the \bin directory.
+
+To build the examples in the Release configuration please follow these steps:
+ a. Exit from Visual Studio. Stop all executing example processes.
+ b. Extract two org.apache.qpid.messaging DLL files from
+ bin/dotnet-binding-release.zip and place the files in the /bin
+ directory, overwriting the files arleady in /bin.
+ c. Start winsdk_dotnet_examples.sln.
+ d. In the Configuration pulldown, select Release.
+ e. In the Platform pulldown, select x86 or x64 to match the SDK
+ in use.
+ f. For each project remove the Reference to org.apache.qpid.messagingd.dll
+ and add a reference to bin/org.apache.qpid.messaging.dll.
+ g. Build and run the project.
+
+5. Notes
+========
+* Only the Release variant of Qpid code uses the redistributable
+ MSVC90 libraries in the /bin directory. Users who wish to link to
+ the Debug variant of Qpid code may do so under their own copy of
+ Visual Studio 2008 where the debug versions of MSVC90 runtime
+ libraries are available.
