                                  INSTALL

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1) Download and install PostgreSQL including development files:

       http://www.postgresql.org

     Your OS-distribution may already have a pre-compiled package, too.

     If the library is installed in a non-standard place, you may need
     to set the paths to the include file "libpq-fe.h" and to the static
     or shared libraries in Makefile.conf (variables INCDIRS and LIBDIRS).

  2) If there is anything non-standard about your OCaml-installation,
     look at the default settings in "OCamlMakefile" and set them to
     the values that are valid on your system. You can do this also by
     setting environment variables. This is greatly simplified if you
     normally use "OCamlMakefile" and have already configured your shell
     environment in startup files appropriately.

     You will need Gerd Stolpmann's "findlib"-tool!

       http://www.ocaml-programming.de/programming/download-caml.html

     On some platforms (e.g. Solaris) it may be necessary to use gcc as
     C-compiler instead of the vendor one, i.e. "CC=gcc".

     If you want to compile the byte-code library without the
     "-custom"-switch, you will have to supply "NO_CUSTOM=y" to "make".

  3) Don't forget: you will need GNU-make!

     Enter "make" in the top directory to compile the library.

     By default, the library will be compiled to support dynamic
     linking. This may not necessarily work on all platforms. In case you
     encounter problems in the following steps, you may pass "STATIC=1"
     to "make" on the command line. This will only build and install a
     statically linkable library.

  4) Enter "make install" to install the library.

  x) If you want to compile the examples, enter "make examples".

     If dynamic linking was allowed, you may only be able to run the
     examples after installation of this library (step 4 above)!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                 UNINSTALL

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1) Easy: just enter "make uninstall". This will remove all files
     installed by "make install".

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enjoy!
