TWiki . Dev . BootstrappingFromCVS

Requirements:

A proper javac - for example the Sun or IBM ones. (not the gcj-wrapper)
- On Debian, for example use the `java-package' package

Get the Nice module from CVS:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nice login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nice co -P Nice
cd Nice

Optionally, if the system nice compiler (which is used for bootstrap) is old:

wget http://nice.sf.net/nice.jar -O external/nice-bootstrap.jar

Compile everything

make

The resulting nice.jar is in share/java. You can install it system-wide using

make install

(Make sure you have a reasonably up-to-date version of groff - 1.18.1 or later should be OK at least.) (If something still goes wrong, `make fixpoint' may help to recompile some stuff, or `make world', which also runs some tests.)
