1 Welcome to Xapian's Learning to Rank Framework
2 ==============================================
4 Xapian's build system is built using GNU autoconf, automake, and libtool.
5 If you've installed other Open Source projects from source, you should
6 find yourself in familiar territory. Building and installing involves
7 the following 3 simple steps:
9 1) Run "./bootstrap xapian-core xapian-letor" in the top level directory.
10 Note: It is preferred that you bootstrap all of the xapian project together.
12 "./bootstrap xapian-core xapian-applications/omega swig xapian-bindings xapian-letor"
13 2) Run "./configure", possibly with some extra arguments
14 3) Run "make" to build
15 4) Run "make install" to install
20 You'll need to install the following prerequisites before you can
23 * xapian-core: We recommend using matching versions of xapian-core and
24 xapian-letor. If you install xapian-core from a package, make sure you
25 also install the development files which are often packaged separately
26 (e.g. in libxapian-dev or xapian-core-devel).
