Compiling coffeeBEan 1.0.2
==========================

Date: Nov 30, 1996

To compile coffeeBEan 1.0.2, you will need:

	1. The JDK 1.0.2 source code available from JavaSoft (http://www.javasoft.com)
	2. The coffeeBEan binaries available from Be's ftp site
			(ftp://ftp.be.com/pub/contrib/lang/java/coffeeBEan102.tar.gz)
	3. The coffeeBEan src files available at Be's ftp site
			(ftp://ftp.be.com/pub/contrib/lang/java/cBEan102.src.tar.gz)

First install the coffeeBEan binaries.

Next choose a directory where the JDK source will live, we'll call it jdk-top
and move the JDK source package there.

Then uncompress/untar JavaSoft's JDK source package

	cd <jdk-top>
	gunzip -c javasrc.tar.gz | tar xf -

Then add the BeOS source files
	
	cp cBEan102.src.tar.gz <jdk-top>/javasrc
	cd <jdk-top>/javasrc
	gunzip -c coffeeBEan.src.tar.gz | tar xf -

Ignore the following errors:
	tar: Could not create directory build : No such file or directory
	tar: Could not create directory src : No such file or directory

If you follow the README instructions in the JDK source distribution,
you should be able to bootstrap coffeeBEan from its binaries. This will
take quite a bit of time because you will recompile all the Java class
packages. I suggest you "cheat" (i.e. save yourself some time! :-) by
copying the class directory from the binary distribution into the
source distribution:

	cd <jdk-top>/javasrc
	cp -r $JAVA_HOME/classes build/

Now we redefine JAVA_HOME because the makefiles use it too:

	export JAVA_HOME=<jdk-top>/javasrc/build

Next go to the proper directory and make:

	cd <jdk-top>/javasrc/build/be/java
	make

This will create both "debug" and "optimized" versions of the JDK in
$JAVA_HOME/bin

You will get the following errors when compiling javah and javap:
### mwcc Usage Warning:
# can't locate include directory 'CClassHeaders'

Just ignore them, CClassHeaders will be created when compiling java itself.

If all goes according to plan you will end up with the following progs
in the <jdk-top>/javasrc/build/bin directory:
		java
		java_g
		javah
		javah_g
		javap
		javap_g

The "debug" versions all end in "_g" and have more command line options.
They are also slower.

Should you run into problems, you can contact me but please be aware that
I don't have access to a BeBox anymore so I probably won't be much help 
Hopefully someone will volunteer and keep coffeeBEan current with the
next versions of the JDK.

Good luck!
