Some questions on dds

[S-N-O-R-L-A-X]

First, I want to express my sincere appreciation on your work. The dds is really good. I want to use it in my own program, an online double dummy analyzer with calculation in client end. However, I am not familiar with C++. I have read the code, the docs for several days but I still did not even know how to use it. When I try running the cpp in example, it raised a lot of errors.

But the cpps puzzled me and there is no main function in source code. Could you please give explanation on following questions:

1. How can I use this program?
2. How can I make this run without building it?
3. Which file is the entrance file?
4. Suppose I want to use web assembly to run this program, what should I do?

Although I'm not the developer of this program, I can give you several advices.

1. The authors want the program used as a library (.so or .dll). If you use C++, you should link to the library, using tools like gcc or cmake.
2. If you don't want to build it, there are 2 ways. First, you can download the pre-built version on official website. Second, you can use Cmake to make it a library when compiling, take open_spiel as an example
   https://github.com/google-deepmind/open_spiel/blob/931e39a99ee73412500def0227925f8f19f033fe/open_spiel/games/CMakeLists.txt#L213
   Or, you can use python, there are several repos on github give examples, for example, redeal
3. The main functions and structure are listed in "include/dll.h".
4. I don't have experience with web assembly, but I think if you can solve questions above, this won't be hard.

Thanks. I have used dds and built a website. However, the speed is slower than wasm I think. Maybe now what I only need is wasm for dds.
