There is a build.properties file which controls the build process. The





10

main item you may need to change in this file is the jars.dir 





11

property. This property should point to a directory which contains 





12

the junit.jar and jna.jar files.

You will need a Java Development Kit accepting the version 1.6





15

of the language since the bindings use enums as well as the new 





16

for loop syntax

18

You can select the Java Development Kit by using the JAVA_HOME 





19

environment variable. This can be useful if you have multiple 





20

JDK installed or if it is installed in a non standard path.
