+This is libgcj: the runtime library for gcj, the GNU Compiler for Java.
+libgcj provides a partial implementation of the Java Class Libraries.
+
+libgcj is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying permission.
+
+
+DOCUMENTATION
+=============
+
+All documentation, including detailed installation and usage instructions,
+can be found on the gcj web pages at the following URL:
+
+ http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java/
+
+
+QUICK INSTALLATION
+==================
+
+ > mkdir build
+ > cd build
+ > ../libgcj/configure --enable-java-gc=<GC TYPE> \
+ --enable-threads=<THREADS TYPE>
+ > make
+ > make install
+
+where:
+
+<GC TYPE> specifies the Garbage Collection library to be used by libgcj.
+Currently the only supported value is "boehm".
+
+<THREADS TYPE> specifies the threads library to be used by libgcj. Currently
+the possible values are "posix" and "none". This value must be the same as
+the value used when configuring gcc itself.
+
+Consult the gcj web pages for additional "configure" arguments.
+
+NOTE: libgcj can not be configured/built in the source directory. You must
+create a separate build directory.
