+**********************************************************************
+**               FastLib Build and Installation Guide               **
+**********************************************************************
+
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+How do I build and install the C++ library?
+
+  cd src/cpp
+  ./configure --fastos-dir <full path to fastos> [--help | <options>]
+  make -s bootstrap
+  make -s install
+
+The default install directory is '../..' (relative to the src/cpp
+directory). This means that the library file will be installed in
+../../lib/ and the include files in ../../include/fastlib/.
+To override the default install directory, use the configure option
+'--install-dir'. Try './configure --fastos-dir <fastosdir> --help'
+for all available options.
+
+Support for additional functionality is available when configuring
+with --libxml2-dir <full path to libxml2>.
+The XML include files must have been installed in
+<libxml2-dir>/includes/libxml2/libxml
+The XML library must have been installed as
+<libxml2-dir>/lib/libxml2.a (or xml2.a on Windows)

+
+What kind of make targets are available, and what do they do?
+
+make depend              - generate make-dependancy information
+make makefiles           - generate makefiles for all modules
+make clean               - delete all intermediate and output files
+make cleandir            - does 'make clean' + deletes depend info
+make install             - install the library and include files
+                           to location $(INSTALLDIR)
+make kdoc                - generate kdoc documentation
+make doxygen             - generate doxygen documentation
+make bootstrap           - (recommended build target) does:
+                                 make cleandir
+                                 make depend
+                                 make makefiles
+                                 make
+make tests               - Compiles test programs, and runs them.
+                           If a test program fails to compile or run,
+                           the make process is stopped.
+                           Please run 'make tests' after changing fastlib code
+                           to ensure you have not broken anything.
