- Subject: FYI: Update README and THANKS
libjava/README contained some very out of date info. This patch gets rid
of it. I've also updated the THANKS file to list all the new
contributors over the last couple of years. Its a big list, so I figure
there isn't much point in trying to keep track of who did what ;-)
Regards

* THANKS: Updated.

-REQUIREMENTS
-============
-
-libgcj must be built with a compatible version of the gcc compiler. libgcj
-releases are usually numbered according to their corresponding gcc release.
-For example, if this is "libgcj 2.95.3", you need to build it using "gcc
-2.95.3".
-
-
-QUICK INSTALLATION
-==================
-
- > mkdir build
- > cd build
- > ../libgcj/configure --enable-threads=<THREADS_TYPE> --prefix=<DIR>
- > make
- > make install
-
-where:
-
-<THREADS_TYPE> specifies the threads library to be used by libgcj. Currently
-the possible values are "posix" and "none". This value must be the same as
-the value used when configuring gcc itself.
-
-<DIR> specifies the installation directory. This should be the same location
-as where gcc is installed.
-
-Consult the gcj web pages for additional "configure" arguments.
-
-NOTE: libgcj can not be built in the same directory as `configure'. You must
-create a separate build directory.
