The simplest way to begin a port is to attempt to configure and build Berkeley DB on a UNIX or UNIX-like system. This gives you a list of the files that you needed to build Berkeley DB as well as the configuration files you can use as a starting point for building on your target port.

|

|
||
To create a base build of Berkeley DB, following the instructions in the
|
||
<em class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide</em>:

|
||
<p>Berkeley DB uses the GNU autoconf tools for configuration on almost all of
|
||
the platforms it supports. Specifically, the include file
|
||
<code class="filename">db_config.h</code> configures the Berkeley DB build. The simplest way to
|
||
begin a port is to configure and build Berkeley DB on a UNIX or UNIX-like
|
||
system, and then take the <code class="filename">Makefile</code> and <code class="filename">db_config.h</code>
|
||
file created by that configuration, and modify it by hand to reflect
|
||
the needs of the new architecture. Unless you are already familiar with
|
||
the GNU autoconf toolset, we do not recommend you take the time to
|
||
integrate your changes back into the Berkeley DB autoconfiguration framework.
|
||
Instead, send us context diffs of your changes and any new source files
|
||
you created, and we can integrate the changes into our source tree.</p>
