Assume that tesshelper.py is in c:\buildfolder\tesseract-3.01\vs2008,

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python tesshelper .. compare
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
will compare c:\buildfolder\tesseract-3.01 "library" directories to the
|

|
|
libtesseract Project
|
||
|
|
(c:\buildfolder\tesseract-3.01\vs2008\libtesseract\libtesseract.vcproj).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python tesshelper .. report
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
will display summary stats for c:\buildfolder\tesseract-3.01 "library"

|
|
directories and the libtesseract Project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python tesshelper .. copy ..\..\include
|

|
|

|
|
python tesshelper .. clean
