<p>
The purpose of cross-compiling is to build a Berkeley DB
library on one platform that is to be used on a different
platform. This section demonstrates how to build a library
compatible with the ARM platform from a 32-bit x86 Linux
platform. You will need to adjust the build tools and options
to match your particular platforms.
</p>
<div class="orderedlist">
<ol type="1">
<li>
<p>
Download, install, and test a toolchain that can
build the desired target binaries. In this example, we
use the <code class="literal">arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc</code>
package.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Decide on your configuration options, and set up
your environment to use the appropriate compiler and
compiler tools. It is often easiest to set this up as
a small shell script. For example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">#!/bin/sh -f
env \
CC=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc \
STRIP=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-strip \
../dist/configure \
--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu \
--host=arm-linux-gnueabi \
--enable-java \
--enable-sql \
--enable-jdbc \
--enable-smallbuild \
--enable-shared \
--enable-stripped_messages \
--prefix=$HOME/ARM-linux/install \
$* </pre>
<p>
The <code class="literal">--build</code> flag indicates the
system on which you are compiling and the
<code class="literal">--host</code> flag indicates the
target platform. Adjust or omit the
<code class="literal">--enable</code> and
<code class="literal">--prefix</code> flag settings as
dictated by your own needs.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Unpack your Berkeley DB distribution and go to the
<code class="literal">build_unix</code> directory.
Alternatively, you may create a more
appropriately-named directory at the same level and
build in it. For example,
<code class="literal">build_arm</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
In your build directory, configure by executing
your script, then <code class="literal">make</code> and
<code class="literal">make install</code>. Review any
compiler warnings and fix if necessary, repeating the
<code class="literal">configure</code> and
<code class="literal">make</code> steps until you are
satisfied. The resulting libraries and executables can
then be transferred to your target system.
</p>
</li>
</ol>
