Requirements
============

VBISAM only requires a working C development system.

Installation
============

See INSTALL for general installation instruction.  Typically,
this is done by the following commands:

    ./configure
    make
    make install

The default target for installed files is "/usr/local".

Other than the usual configure options (./configure --help)
there are the following specific VBISAM configure options:

  --with-cisamcompat	use VBISAM C-ISAM comatibility mode
  --with-lfs64		use large file system for file I/O (default)
  --with-debug		Enable debugging mode

To squeeze extra performance out of the code, you may want to
do for the install eg :
make install-strip


Development
===========

You need to install the following extra packages with specified
minumum version before hacking VBISAM configure/makefile files:

  o Autoconf 2.59
  o Automake 1.9.6
  o Libtool 1.5.24
  o m4 1.4

Run "autoreconf -ifv -I m4" to regenerate configure/makefile scripts.
You need to run autoreconf whenever you modify configure.ac
or Makefile.am.
