This is a simple tutorial on compiling libActiveMQLibAIO.so DEPENDENCIES Make sure you install these packages: - G++ (yum install gcc-c++ or aptitude install g++) - Gcc (yum insall gcc or aptitude install gcc) - JDK (full JDK) LIBAIO INFORMATION libaio is part of the kernel project. The library makes system calls on the kernel layer. This is the project information: Git Repository: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libaio/libaio.git Mailing List: linux-aio@kvack.org STEPS TO BUILD 1. Make sure you have JAVA_HOME defined, and pointing to the root of your JDK: Example: $> export JAVA_HOME=/usr/share/jdk1.7 2. Call compile-native.sh. Bootstrap will call all the initial scripts you need $> ./compile-native.sh if you are missing any dependencies, autoconf would tell you what you're missing. COMPILED FILE The produced file will be under the ./target/nar (example: ./target/nar/activemq-native-6.0.0-amd64-Linux-gpp-jni/lib/amd64-Linux-gpp/jni/libactivemq-native-6.0.0.so) and you will have to rename it manually under ./bin following the appropriate pattern. DOCUMENTATION The User Manual, chapter 38 (Libaio Native Libraries) will provide more details about our native libraries on libaio.
