+
+
+Building on UNIX
+================
+
+The following build instructions are for the Linux/UNIX/Mac OS X
+operating systems as well as for Cygwin and MinGW on Windows.
+
+The standard autotools-based build system is used on these platforms. 
+After unpacking the source code archive, change to the libodb-tracer
+package directory (referred to as libodb-tracer/ from now on) and run
+the configure script:
+
+./configure
+
+To see the available configuration options run configure with --help:
+
+./configure --help
+
+The configure script expects the libodb headers and libraries to
+be installed in a directory where the C++ compiler and linker will
+search for them by default (normally /usr and /usr/local). If libodb
+is installed in another directory, you can use the CPPFLAGS and 
+LDFLAGS configure variables to specify its location, for example:
+
+./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/libodb/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/libodb/lib
+
+If libodb is not installed and you would like to use its build
+directory instead, you can use the --with-libodb configure option
+to specify its location, for example:
+
+./configure --with-libodb=/tmp/libodb
+
+As another example, the following configure command only builds shared
+libraries, uses the specified C++ compiler, and compiles with optimization
+and without the debug information:
+
+./configure --disable-static CXX=g++-4.5 CXXFLAGS=-O3
+
+Once configuration is complete, run make to build libodb-tracer:
+
+make
+
+Once the build completes successfully, you can install the libodb-tracer
+headers and libraries using the install target (you may need to do this
+step as root depending on the installation directory):
+
+make install
+
+
+Building on Windows
+===================
+
+The following build instructions are for Windows using Microsoft Visual
+Studio. If you would like to build libodb-tracer with GCC either using
+Cygwin or MinGW, refer to the "Building on UNIX" section above.
+
+The standard Visual Studio project and solution files are used on this
+platform. The provided project files expect the libodb header and import
+library directories to be in the VC++ Directories Include and Library
+search lists. See the INSTALL file in the libodb package for more
+information on how to setup the VC++ Directories.
+
+To build libodb-tracer, unpack the source code archive and open the
+libodb-tracer-vc<N>.sln file located in the libodb-tracer package
+directory (referred to as libodb-tracer\ from now on). Here <N> is the
+version of Visual Studio that you are using. Once the solution is open,
+select the desired build configuration (Debug or Release) and platform
+(Win32 or x64) and build the solution.
+
+The resulting 32-bit DLLs and import libraries are placed into the 
+libodb-tracer\bin\ and libodb-tracer\lib\ directories, respectively.
+Similarly, the 64-bit DLLs and import libraries are placed into
+libodb-tracer\bin64\ and libodb-tracer\lib64\. The Release versions of
+import libraries are named odb-tracer.lib and the Debug versions are
+named odb-tracer-d.lib.
+
+To configure Visual Studio to automatically locate the libodb-tracer
+headers, DLLs, and import libraries, add the following paths to your
+VC++ Directories:
+
+Win32:
+
+  Include:    ...\libodb-tracer
+  Library:    ...\libodb-tracer\lib
+  Executable: ...\libodb-tracer\bin    
+
+x64:
+
+  Include:    ...\libodb-tracer
+  Library:    ...\libodb-tracer\lib64
+  Executable: ...\libodb-tracer\bin64
