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.
