Hi,

It took me just a bit of scratching to find the secret of building Derby in MacOS X. The BUILDING.txt file has nothing about it, and it took me a bit of work to find the post http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=derby- [EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgNo=31 that explains enough of what I needed to do. It was clear enough that I could run derby on MacOS X but it wasn't obvious that I could develop on it.

I'd like to see the MacOS X information right up front, because I spent a bit of time trying to figure out how to get hold of a JDK 1.3.1 environment, which isn't even necessary for MacOS X because when you install 1.4, you also get the 1.3.1 environment for Derby.

Is there already a place for this kind of operating-system-dependent information? If not, would BUILDING.txt be a good place for it?

I would be happy to write up a patch for BUILDING.txt or wherever it should be.

Thanks,

Craig
