/*! @page install How to build and install WiredTiger
This section explains how to build and install the WiredTiger software.
@section github Building using Git and GitHub
Skip this step if you are building from a WiredTiger release package,
and proceed with @ref building.
To build from the WiredTiger GitHub repository requires
<a href="http://git-scm.com/">git</a>,
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html">autoconf</a>,
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/automake.html">automake</a>,
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html">libtool</a> and
related tools. The standard options for those tools can be specified
when configuring and building WiredTiger.
First, clone the repository:
@code
git clone git://github.com/wiredtiger/wiredtiger.git
@endcode
Second, run the \c build_posix/reconf script:
@code
cd wiredtiger
sh build_posix/reconf
@endcode
This creates the \c configure script, and you can now proceed with @ref
building.
@section building Building WiredTiger
To build the WiredTiger software on a POSIX-like system, change directory to
the top-level directory, then configure and build the software:
@code
cd wiredtiger
./configure && make
@endcode
To rebuild from scratch, discard any previous configuration by cleaning
out the build area:
@code
make distclean
@endcode
To see additional configuration options, run:
@code
./configure --help
@endcode
WiredTiger uses
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html">autoconf</a>
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/automake.html">automake</a>,
and <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html">libtool</a>
to create the configure script and Makefiles. The standard options for those
tools can be specified when configuring and building WiredTiger.
@section installing Installing WiredTiger
The WiredTiger software consists of a library and a single standalone
utility.
WiredTiger's distribution follows the GNU Coding Standards installation
guidelines, and by default WiredTiger builds and installs four versions
of the library in <code>/usr/local/lib</code>. For example:
@code
file /usr/local/lib/libwiredtiger*
/usr/local/lib/libwiredtiger-1.0.0.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped
/usr/local/lib/libwiredtiger.a: current ar archive
/usr/local/lib/libwiredtiger.la: libtool library file
/usr/local/lib/libwiredtiger.so: symbolic link to `libwiredtiger-1.0.0.so'
@endcode
WiredTiger uses
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html">libtool</a> to
build the libraries. By default, both shared and static libraries are built.
To build only static libraries, configure WiredTiger using the
\c --disable-shared argument. To build only shared libraries, configure using
WiredTiger using the \c --disable-static argument.
In addition, WiredTiger installs a standalone utility program named
<code>wt</code>. By default, this utility is installed in
<code>/usr/local/bin/wt</code>.
To install WiredTiger:
@code
make install
@endcode
To uninstall WiredTiger:
@code
make uninstall
@endcode
To install WiredTiger's libraries or binaries into alternate locations,
use the configuration or installation options described in the
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/">GNU coding standards</a>
documentation. For example, to install the libraries and binaries into
a different location:
@code
./configure --prefix=/c/wiredtiger
@endcode
@section configure Configuring WiredTiger
The WiredTiger software supports some additional configuration options:
@par \c --enable-attach
Configure WiredTiger to sleep and wait for a debugger to attach on failure.
<b>DO NOT</b> configure this option in production environments.
@par \c --enable-bzip2
Configure WiredTiger for <a href="http://www.bzip.org/">bzip2</a>
compression; see @ref compression for more information.
@par \c --enable-diagnostic
Configure WiredTiger to perform various run-time diagnostic tests.
<b>DO NOT</b> configure this option in production environments.
@par \c --enable-java
Build the WiredTiger Java API.
@par \c --enable-python
Build the WiredTiger <a href="http://www.python.org">Python</a> API.
@par \c --enable-snappy
Configure WiredTiger for <a href="http://code.google.com/p/snappy/">snappy</a>
compression; see @ref compression for more information.
@par \c --enable-verbose
Configure WiredTiger to support the \c verbose configuration string to
::wiredtiger_open.
@par \c --enable-zlib
Configure WiredTiger for <a href="http://www.zlib.net/">zlib</a>
compression; see @ref compression for more information.
@par <code>--with-builtins</code>
Configure WiredTiger to include support for extensions in the main library.
This avoids requiring additional libraries for supported extensions. Currently
supported options are \c snappy and \c zlib.
@par <code>--with-python-prefix</code>
Configure WiredTiger to install Python libraries to a non-standard Python
install location.
@par <code>--with-spinlock</code>
Configure WiredTiger to use a specific mutex type for serialization;
options are \c pthread (the default, which configures WiredTiger to use
POSIX 1003.1c pthread mutexes) or \c gcc (which configures WiredTiger
to use gcc-based spinlocks).
@section compiler Changing compiler or loader options
To change the compiler or loader behavior during the build, use the
<code>CC</code>, <code>CFLAGS</code>, <code>LDFLAGS</code>, or
<code>LIBS</code> environment variables:
@par \c CC
The compiler.
@par \c CFLAGS
Compiler flags.
@par \c LDFLAGS
Loader flags.
@par \c LIBS
Additional libraries.
For example, to specify a different compiler:
@code
env CC=mygcc ./configure
@endcode
By default, WiredTiger builds with the \c -O3 compiler optimization flag
unless the \c --enable-debug configuration option is specified, in which
case the \c -g compiler flag is used instead. For example, to specify
a different level of optimization:
@code
env CFLAGS=-Os ./configure
@endcode
To specify a different set of include files:
@code
env CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include ./configure
@endcode
To specify an additional library:
@code
env LIBS="-lrtf -lmin" LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib ./configure
@endcode
