<p>
The Berkeley DB distribution builds up to four separate libraries:
the base C API Berkeley DB library and the optional C++, Java, and
Tcl API libraries. For portability reasons, each library is
standalone and contains the full Berkeley DB support necessary to
build applications; that is, the C++ API Berkeley DB library does
not require any other Berkeley DB libraries to build and run C++
applications.
</p>
<p>
Building for Linux, Apple iOS (known as iPhone OS previously), Mac OS X or the QNX Neutrino release is the same
as building for a conventional UNIX platform.
</p>
<p>
The Berkeley DB distribution uses the Free Software Foundation's
<a class="ulink" href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html" target="_top">autoconf</a>
and <a class="ulink" href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html" target="_top">libtool</a>
tools to build on UNIX platforms. In general, the standard
configuration and installation options for these tools apply to the
Berkeley DB distribution.
</p>
<p>
To perform a standard UNIX build of Berkeley DB, change to the
<span class="bold"><strong>build_unix</strong></span>
directory and then enter the following two commands:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">../dist/configure
make</pre>
<p>
This will build the Berkeley DB library.
</p>
<p>
To install the Berkeley DB library, enter the following command:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">make install</pre>
<p>
To rebuild Berkeley DB, enter:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">make clean
make</pre>
<p>
If you change your mind about how Berkeley DB is to be configured, you must
start from scratch by entering the following command:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">make realclean
../dist/configure
make</pre>
<p>
To uninstall Berkeley DB, enter:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">make uninstall</pre>
<p>
To build multiple UNIX versions of Berkeley DB in the same source
tree, create a new directory at the same level as the build_unix
directory, and then configure and build in that directory as
described previously.

<p>
To perform a standard UNIX build of the Berkeley DB SQL interface, go
to the <span class="bold"><strong>build_unix</strong></span> directory and then
enter the following two commands:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">../dist/configure --enable-sql
make </pre>
<p>
This creates a library, <code class="literal">libdb_sql</code>, and a command
line tool, <code class="literal">dbsql</code>. You can create and manipulate SQL
databases using the <code class="literal">dbsql</code> shell.
</p>
<p>
You can optionally provide the <code class="literal">--enable-sql_compat</code>
argument to the <code class="literal">configure</code> script. In addition to
creating <code class="literal">libdb_sql</code> and <code class="literal">dbsql</code> this
causes a thin wrapper library called <code class="literal">libsqlite3</code> and
a command line tool called <code class="literal">sqlite3</code> to be built. This
library can be used as a drop-in replacement for SQLite. The
<code class="literal">sqlite3</code> command line tool is identical to the
<code class="literal">dbsql</code> executable but is named so that existing
scripts for SQLite can easily work with Berkeley DB.
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
../dist/configure --enable-sql_compat
make </pre>
<p>
There are several arguments you can specify when configuring the
Berkeley DB SQL Interface. See
<a class="xref" href="build_unix_sql.html" title="Configuring the SQL Interface">Configuring the SQL Interface</a>
for more information.
