[CLucene-dev] build scripts

[Jimmy P. <jp...@sd...>]

The first version of the Linux build scripts are finally coming
along.  I built a clucene shared object for the first time tonight.
Tomorrow I will write the build scripts for the example code to test
out libclucene.so.  I am using very recent build tools: Automake 1.6,
Autoconf 2.57, and libtool 1.5a, as well as gcc 3.2.2.  

I was able to keep the directory structure the same as in Windows.
Also I tried to keep as close to the Windows code as possible, often
including replacement functions (some copied from Wine, some
handwritten) when a particular function did not exist on Linux. The
filesystem calls were also a little different on Linux than windows
and required some #defines.  I will post the code when I get the
examples working.  If anyone needs the code sooner, or would like to
help with the port, I can send them a copy now.  A goal of the port
was to have the same code base build on Windows and Linux.  Thanks Ben
for getting rid of the dependency on tchar!

Best, 
  Jimmy.
