16REQUIREMENTS
17============
18
19libgcj must be built with a compatible version of the gcc compiler. libgcj
20releases are usually numbered according to their corresponding gcc release.
21For example, if this is "libgcj 2.95.3", you need to build it using "gcc
222.95.3".

25QUICK INSTALLATION
26==================
27
28 > mkdir build
29 > cd build
34412aa4 30 > ../libgcj/configure --enable-threads=<THREADS_TYPE> --prefix=<DIR>

31 > make
32 > make install

34where:
35
d585552a 36<THREADS_TYPE> specifies the threads library to be used by libgcj. Currently
faf1fdf0
BM
37the possible values are "posix" and "none". This value must be the same as
38the value used when configuring gcc itself.
39
34412aa4
BM
40<DIR> specifies the installation directory. This should be the same location
41as where gcc is installed.

43Consult the gcj web pages for additional "configure" arguments.
44
d585552a 45NOTE: libgcj can not be built in the same directory as `configure'. You must

46create a separate build directory.
