[AG-TECH] compiling environment for AG media tools RAT and VIC?

[Ivan R. Judson]

Sorry the other answer is:

Ag-media is the current module, it's a unification of the other two,
reducing the need for two copies of tcl/tk and libcommon.

VIC?
	
	
	We are starting a project that will involve experimenting with the
source code of RAT and VIC.  Basically, we want to extend the configuration
options that are available in the command line and start-up scripts to allow
more control over the various features when the tools are launched.  I can
tell you more about that later if you are interested, but my question is
about the development environment.
	
	What compiler is required to build RAT and VIC on the Windows and
UNIX platforms?  Is it just the GNU tools for UNIX?  For Windows I
understand that the developers might be using Visual Studio .NET.  Is this
correct?  If so, if we have to go out and buy a new version of this
software, does it matter which of the 3 editions we get? Can we do it all
with the Professional edition, or do we need one of the Enterprise editions?
	
	Another question concerns the CVS repository.  There appears to be
two locations where the source code for RAT and VIC are stored:
	
	/ag-media/rat or /ag-media/vic
	/ag-rat or /ag-vic
	
	Which of these is the current project?
	
	We hope to be able offer anything useful that we come up with back
to the project.
