-Lucene Build Instructions
-
-Basic steps:
- 0) Install JDK 1.5 (or greater), Ant 1.7.x (not 1.6.x, not 1.8.x)
- 1) Download Lucene from Apache and unpack it
- 2) Connect to the top-level of your Lucene installation
- 3) Install JavaCC (optional)
- 4) Run ant
-
-Step 0) Set up your development environment (JDK 1.5 or greater,
-Ant 1.7.x)
-
-We'll assume that you know how to get and set up the JDK - if you
-don't, then we suggest starting at http://java.sun.com and learning
-more about Java, before returning to this README. Lucene runs with
-JDK 1.5 and later.
-
-Like many Open Source java projects, Lucene uses Apache Ant for build
-control. Specifically, you MUST use Ant version 1.7.x
-
-Ant is "kind of like make without make's wrinkles". Ant is
-implemented in java and uses XML-based configuration files. You can
-get it at:
-
- http://ant.apache.org
-
-You'll need to download the Ant binary distribution. Install it
-according to the instructions at:
-
- http://ant.apache.org/manual
-
-Step 1) Download Lucene from Apache
-
-We'll assume you already did this, or you wouldn't be reading this
-file. However, you might have received this file by some alternate
-route, or you might have an incomplete copy of the Lucene, so: Lucene
-releases are available for download at:
-
- http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/java/
-
-Download either a zip or a tarred/gzipped version of the archive, and
-uncompress it into a directory of your choice.
-
-Step 2) From the command line, change (cd) into the top-level directory of your Lucene installation
-
-Lucene's top-level directory contains the build.xml file. By default,
-you do not need to change any of the settings in this file, but you do
-need to run ant from this location so it knows where to find build.xml.
-
-If you would like to change settings you can do so by creating one
-or more of the following files and placing your own property settings
-in there:
-
- ~/lucene.build.properties
- ~/build.properties
- lucene-x.y/build.properties
-
-The first property which is found in the order with which the files are
-loaded becomes the property setting which is used by the Ant build
-system.
-
-NOTE: the ~ character represents your user account home directory.
-
-Step 3) Install JavaCC
-
-Building the Lucene distribution from the source does not require the JavaCC
-parser generator, but if you wish to regenerate any of the pre-generated
-parser pieces, you will need to install JavaCC. Version 4.1 is tested to
-work correctly.
-
- http://javacc.dev.java.net
-
-Follow the download links and download the zip file to a temporary
-location on your file system.
-
-After JavaCC is installed, create a build.properties file
-(as in step 2), and add the line
-
- javacc.home=/javacc
-
-where this points to the root directory of your javacc installation
-(the directory that contains bin/lib/javacc.jar).
-
-Step 4) Run ant
-
-Assuming you have ant in your PATH and have set ANT_HOME to the
-location of your ant installation, typing "ant" at the shell prompt
-and command prompt should run ant. Ant will by default look for the
-"build.xml" file in your current directory, and compile Lucene.
-
-To rebuild any of the JavaCC-based parsers, run "ant javacc".
