+Configuring with libjvm
+-----------------------
+
+ To determine the location of the required files of a Java installation is not
+ an easy task, because the locations vary with your kernel (Linux, SunOS, â¦)
+ and with your architecture (x86, SPARC, â¦) and there is no âjava-configâ
+ script we could use. Configuration of the JVM library is therefore a bit
+ tricky.
+
+ The easiest way to use the `--with-java=$JAVA_HOME' option, where
+ `$JAVA_HOME' is usually something like:
+ /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.14
+
+ The configure script will then use find(1) to look for the following files:
+
+ - jni.h
+ - jni_md.h
+ - libjvm.so
+
+ If found, appropriate CPP-flags and LD-flags are set and the following
+ library checks succeed.
+
+ If this doesn't work for you, you have the possibility to specify CPP-flags,
+ C-flags and LD-flags for the âJavaâ plugin by hand, using the following three
+ (environment) variables:
+
+ - JAVA_CPPFLAGS
+ - JAVA_CFLAGS
+ - JAVA_LDFLAGS
+
+ For example (shortened for demonstration purposes):
+
+ ./configure JAVA_CPPFLAGS="-I$JAVA_HOME/include -I$JAVA_HOME/include/linux"
+
+ Adding "-ljvm" to the JAVA_LDFLAGS is done automatically, you don't have to
+ do that.
