<p align=center><b>Building for UNIX/POSIX</b></p>
<p>The Berkeley DB distribution builds up to four separate libraries: the base
C API Berkeley DB library and the optional C++, Java, and Tcl API libraries.
For portability reasons, each library is standalone and contains the
full Berkeley DB support necessary to build applications; that is, the C++
API Berkeley DB library does not require any other Berkeley DB libraries to build
and run C++ applications.</p>
<p>Building for Linux, Mac OS X and the QNX Neutrino release is the same
as building for a conventional UNIX platform.</p>
<p>The Berkeley DB distribution uses the Free Software Foundation's
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html">autoconf</a>
and <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html">libtool</a> tools to build on UNIX platforms. In general, the standard
configuration and installation options for these tools apply to the
Berkeley DB distribution.</p>
<p>To do a standard UNIX build of Berkeley DB, change to the <b>build_unix</b>
directory and then enter the following two commands:</p>
<blockquote><pre>../dist/configure
make</pre></blockquote>
<p>This will build the Berkeley DB library.</p>
<p>To install the Berkeley DB library, enter the following command:</p>
<blockquote><pre>make install</pre></blockquote>
<p>To rebuild Berkeley DB, enter:</p>
<blockquote><pre>make clean
make</pre></blockquote>
<p>If you change your mind about how Berkeley DB is to be configured, you must
start from scratch by entering the following command:</p>
<blockquote><pre>make realclean
../dist/configure
make</pre></blockquote>
<p>To uninstall Berkeley DB, enter:</p>
<blockquote><pre>make uninstall</pre></blockquote>
<p>To build multiple UNIX versions of Berkeley DB in the same source tree, create
a new directory at the same level as the build_unix directory, and then
configure and build in that directory as described previously.</p>
