BUILDING
-- Pre-requisite for 'mongo', the MongoDB interactive shell:
+ For detail information about building, please see:
- The shell requires the library ../v8/libv8. There is no v8 binary distro, so
- we recommend you install and build V8 as follows:
-
- $ cd ..
- $ svn checkout http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ v8
- $ cd v8
- $ scons libv8.a

- Pre-requisite for 'test' binary, the MongoDB unit test suite:
-
+ This is not required for building or running the database

To compile the unit tests, you need to install the unit test framework from:

NOTES
-Mongo uses the 10gen appserver and the Java Virtual Machine to execute
-user program code in the database. This feature is optional -- if you would
-like to run the database without these installed, run with the --nojni
-option. With --nojni specified, the db.eval() and $where features are no
-longer available. You may still need JVM libraries which are statically linked.
-
Mongo uses memory mapped files. If built as a 32 bit executable, you will
not be able to work with large (multi-gigabyte) databases. However, 32 bit
builds work fine with small development databases.
