michael@0: 
michael@0:     SQLite: An Embeddable SQL Database Engine
michael@0: 
michael@0: To compile the project, first create a directory in which to place
michael@0: the build products.  It is recommended, but not required, that the
michael@0: build directory be separate from the source directory.  Cd into the
michael@0: build directory and then from the build directory run the configure
michael@0: script found at the root of the source tree.  Then run "make".
michael@0: 
michael@0: For example:
michael@0: 
michael@0:     tar xzf sqlite.tar.gz    ;#  Unpack the source tree into "sqlite"
michael@0:     mkdir bld                ;#  Build will occur in a sibling directory
michael@0:     cd bld                   ;#  Change to the build directory
michael@0:     ../sqlite/configure      ;#  Run the configure script
michael@0:     make                     ;#  Run the makefile.
michael@0:     make install             ;#  (Optional) Install the build products
michael@0: 
michael@0: The configure script uses autoconf 2.61 and libtool.  If the configure
michael@0: script does not work out for you, there is a generic makefile named
michael@0: "Makefile.linux-gcc" in the top directory of the source tree that you
michael@0: can copy and edit to suit your needs.  Comments on the generic makefile
michael@0: show what changes are needed.
michael@0: 
michael@0: The linux binaries on the website are created using the generic makefile,
michael@0: not the configure script.  The windows binaries on the website are created
michael@0: using MinGW32 configured as a cross-compiler running under Linux.  For 
michael@0: details, see the ./publish.sh script at the top-level of the source tree.
michael@0: The developers do not use teh configure script.
michael@0: 
michael@0: SQLite does not require TCL to run, but a TCL installation is required
michael@0: by the makefiles.  SQLite contains a lot of generated code and TCL is
michael@0: used to do much of that code generation.  The makefile also requires
michael@0: AWK.
