Compiler Issues

Windows

Office Server Document Converter V10.0 Windows versions are built using Microsoft Visual C++ 2022. MFC is not used. Use a compatible compiler for your program.

Linux

Office Server Document Converter V10.0 Linux 64-bit version is built using GCC 11.3.1. Your program must be compiled using GCC 11.3.1 or later. For more detailed information about GCC, see “GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection”.

Building the Sample Programs

[Install directory]/​samples/​cpp and [Install directory]/​samples/​c includes some simple sample programs.

Windows

In order to build a sample with the command line of Visual C++ in the Windows environment, execute the compiler from the console as follows:

> cd [Install directory]/samples/cpp > cl -GX -I ..\..\include sample.cpp ..\..\lib\DfvInterface.lib /MT

[Install directory]/​lib must be appended to the PATH environment variable in order to execute this program. The sample executes as follows:

Linux

The following command-line shows how to build the sample in the Linux environment using GCC.

$ cd [Install directory]/samples/cpp $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ g++ sample.cpp -I../include -L../lib -lDfvInterface -oSamplecppcmd -lstdc++ -lpthread

In order to execute the built sample program, a setup of other environment variables is necessary. For more details, see Environment Variables and Symbolic Links.

As mentioned previous, the GCC version is very important. Check your GCC version using the --version command-line option.
