 A tool to generate a report of API status changes between two ICU releases
 
         To use the utility
-        1. Generate the XML files
+        1. setup ICU
-            (put the two ICU releases on your machine ^_^ )
+            (put the two ICU releases on your machine ^_^ 
-            (generate 'Doxygen' file on Windows platform with Cygwin's help)
+		run 'configure' in both releases (or runConfigureICU)
-            Edit the generated 'Doxygen' file under ICU4C source directory
+	2. create a Makefile.local with these two lines:
-            a) GENERATE_XML           = YES
+			OLD_ICU=/xsrl/E/icu-1.0
-            b) Sync the ALIASES definiation
+			NEW_ICU=/xsrl/E/icu-6.8
-               (For example, copy the ALIASES defination from ICU 3.6
+	   ( where these are the paths to the parent of 'source', etc)
-               Doxygen file to ICU 3.4 Doxygen file.)
+        3. Build the API docs
-            c) gerenate the XML files
+            make
-        2. Build the tool
+	4. allow APIChangeReport.html to cool before use.
-            ant doctools
-        3. Edit the api-report.properties and change the values of olddir,   newdir ( don't need to set oldver or newver)
-        4. Run the tool to generate the report
-            ant apireport
