Dear all,
Please go to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-1631 to find a
patch for README.txt. Could you please find a chance to check whether the
information is up-to date?
(pay special attention to KNOWN ISSUES and TODO sections)
In this connection I'd like to ask you to:
1. Check whether we need info about the compilers described below:
+ Microsoft 32-bit C/C++ Compiler, version 7 or higher
+ Windows platform SDK
+ Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 or higher
+ Intel C++ Compiler, version 9.0
2. If we really need the aforementioned compilers, should we mention the
following:
3.7 You can switch between the different compilers and modes by using
the environment variables, as follows:
On Windows*: | On Linux*:
-------------------------+----------------------
MSVC compiler : set CXX=msvc # | N/A
Intel(R) compiler : set CXX=icl | export CXX=icc
GCC compiler : N/A | export CXX=gcc
etc
3. Is this still a dependency for Linux?
libxml2 package
4. Do we really need all stuff specified as additional (section 2.TOOLS AND
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES REQUIRED FOR THE BUILD)?
Your suggestions/comments/ideas are very welcome. :)
Best regards,
Nadya Morozova

I was looking at the patch, and think we should just chuck the whole
README.txt, salvage what's good, put it on the website, and put a
pointer in the README.txt to the website.
