+This is a library implementing the intermediate representation FIRM
+developed at IPD Goos, Uni Karlsruhe.
 
-Call make lib to construct the library.  This creates a file
-libfirm.a and extracts all necessary header files to ./include.
+Create an architecture dependent directory (eg 'mkdir i686-linux') an
+cd to it. Call ../configure with wanted features (see ../configure
+--help for more hints). Call 'make' to construct the library. This
+creates a file libfirm.a
 
-To test the library goto ./testprograms and make and run the
-test examples placed there:
+To test the library goto ./<arch>/testprograms and call 'make test'
+there.
 
-make lib
-cd testprograms
-make
-make run
+If you have set up the include and libdir using configure you can
+install the library and its headers by 'make install'.  This is
+encouraged if the library is hooked up to any other modules, e.g., a
+front end.
 
-For more documentation see /include/firm.h.
 To generate FIRM code from a compiler frontend read the documentation
-in ./include/ircons.h.
-About Firm you can learn in UKA tech-report 1999-??.

+
+You can generate a Java Native Interface for the library.  For this
+configure libfirm with --enable-firmjni and give the path to
+the jni headers, e.g.
+--with-includedir=/usr/public2/java/jdk1.3.1-sun/include/:/usr/
+  public2/java/jdk1.3.1-sun/include/linux/.
+Then go to ./<arch>/firmjni and call make.  To test the native
+interface go on to testprograms and call make test.
+
+
+If you are using the library for heap analysis with libfirm you
+have to configure libfirm with --enable-heapanalysis.  If you
+use the heap analysis through the java native interface you
+must in addition give the paths to the heap analysis installation:
+--with-includedir=<path where you find heapanal/heapanal.h>
+--with-libdir=<path where you find libheapanal.a>
+
+
+
+You can also give the paths by setting environment variables
+CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS before configuring.
