Building from source
Most users will not need to build from source as a binary distribution of all libraries is included in the download. If you are a developer, then see the build, tarball, etc. instructions in the ant build file `build.xml`. Build Requirements jdk-1.2 or higher ('java' must be in your PATH) ant-1.5.3 or higher (http://jakarta.apache.org/ant) Define the path to your java installation and ant software. For example UNIX bash-style: export PATH=/usr/local/java2/jdk/jdk-1.4/bin:$PATH export PATH=/usr/local/java2/share/apache/ant/bin:$PATH export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java2/jdk/jdk-1.4 (ant works without this but reports a warning) Windows: set PATH=e:\java\jdk\sun-1.4.2\bin;%PATH% set PATH=e:\java\share\apache\ant-1.5.4\bin;%PATH% set JAVA_HOME=e:\java\jdk\sun-1.4.2 (ant works without this but reports a warning) To build everything from scratch cd /opt/colt ant build To get more information on other targets ant help
