The buildall.sh script is a wrapper around separate build
procedures for each third-party library. If there are problems using
the script, or if it is necessary to build libraries individually, it
is possible to build manually. Building manually gives you finer
control over configuration, build and installation. If you are able
to build successfully using buildall.sh, the information in this
section is not necessary.
These instructions assume that the third-party libraries are in the directory, dbxml-6.0.xx. They apply regardless of actual location.
Berkeley DB XML requires Berkeley DB 4.3.28 or newer. This release includes Berkeley DB 6.1.x. Adjust the path below to match the version bundled with the distribution.
This will install Berkeley DB in
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.6.1. If you want to install
in a different directory, add --prefix=/path/to/install to the
configure line.
If you want to use the Berkeley DB XML Java API, you must also build
Berkeley DB with Java support by adding --enable-java to the
configure line.
Xerces is the Apache implementation of XML parsing technology and DOM. The build requires a source release of Xerces, not just a binary release. This release of Berkeley DB XML bundles Xerces-C 3.1.2, and requires the Xerces 3.0.1 release or newer.
Example Bourne shell build commands for Xerces are:
cd dbxml-6.0.xx/xerces-c-src export XERCESCROOT=`pwd` cd src/xercesc ./configure --disable-pretty-make make make install
The option --disable-pretty-make is added because that eliminates the requirement for GNU make. It results in more verbose output. If it is not used GNU make will be required.
This will install Xerces under /usr/local. If you
want to install in a different directory, add
-P/path/to/install to the configure line.
XQilla is a partial implementation of XQuery 3.0 and XPath 2.0. This release of Berkeley DB XML bundles the XQilla version that is required. Other versions may work, but are not implicitly supported. Generally releases with the same major and minor number will be compatible.
An example Bourne shell build command for XQilla is:
cd dbxml-6.0.xx/xqilla mkdir build cd build ../configure --with-xerces=../../xerces-c-src make make install
This will install XQilla under /usr/local. If you
want to install in a different directory, add
--prefix=/path/to/install to the configure line. The
--with-xerces directive is required, and must point to a valid
installed Xerces tree.
To build multiple UNIX versions of XQilla in the same source tree, create a new directory at the same level as the build directory, and then configure and build in that directory as described previously.
The --with-berkeleydb,
--with-xerces, and
--with-xqilla
configuration options can be used to specify the location of the
install trees. Alternatively, the CFLAGS, LDFLAGS and other standard
environment variables can be used to specify the location of the
already installed include and library files.
To do a standard UNIX build of Berkeley DB XML using default paths
and installations of the third-party libraries, change to the
build_unix directory and then enter the following
two commands, adjusting the paths as necessary:
cd dbxml-6.0.xx/dbxml/build_unix ../dist/configure make
If you have changed the locations where Berkeley DB, Xerces, or
XQilla are installed from the defaults, add the arguments
--with-berkeleydb=/path/to/db,
--with-xqilla=/path/to/xqilla and/or
--with-xerces=/path/to/xerces to configure.
By default, Berkeley DB XML is installed in
/usr/local/BerkeleyDBXML.6.0. To change that, add
--prefix=/path/to/install to configure. To install the
Berkeley DB XML library, enter the following command:
make install
To rebuild Berkeley DB XML, enter:
make clean make
If you change your mind about how Berkeley DB XML is to be configured, you must start from scratch by entering the following command:
make distclean ../dist/configure make
To build multiple UNIX versions of Berkeley DB XML 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.
To build the DB XML Java API, make sure there is a working
javac in your PATH, and specify
--enable-java when running both the Berkeley DB and Berkeley
DB XML configure scripts. When you run make, the Java support
library for Berkeley DB XML will be built, creating the file
dbxml.jar in your build directory.
To make use of the DB XML Java API set your environment variable
CLASSPATH to include the full pathname of the
dbxml.jar file, as well as the
db.jar file from Berkeley DB, and your environment
variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent) to
include the .libs subdirectory of your build
directory.
