To build an example application using the Dev-CPP development tool on a PC


Use this mirdef.h

/*
 *   MIRACL compiler/hardware definitions - mirdef.h

#define MR_LITTLE_ENDIAN
#define MIRACL 32
#define mr_utype int

#define MR_ALWAYS_BINARY
#define MAXBASE ((mr_small)1<<(MIRACL-1))

Create a "Static Library" C project called miracl, and "Add to Project" this 
mirdef.h, miracl.h, and all of these files

mrcore.c
mrarth0.c
mrarth1.c
mrarth2.c
mrsmall.c
mrio1.c
mrio2.c
mrgcd.c
mrjack.c
mrxgcd.c
mrarth3.c
mrbits.c
mrrand.c
mrprime.c
mrcrt.c
mrscrt.c

mrshs512.c

mrpi.c
mrflsh2.c
mrflsh3.c
mrflsh4.c
mrec2m.c
mrgf2m.c

Compile this project to create the static library file miracl.a

Close this project, and open a new C++ console application called demo.

Remove the default main program main.cpp from the project, and "Add to Project" the files

big.h
big.cpp
ecn.h
ecn.cpp
pk-demo.cpp

Now click on "Project Options", and click on the "Parameters" Tab. 
Then click on "Add Library or Object", and find the miracl.a file created earlier.

Now compile and run the program. One problem - it runs very fast and then exits. So
edit pk-demo.cpp and and just before the final "return 0;" statement add the line "cin >> ia;"

Now try again...
