3. Quick start
==============

In C++ distributions:

   ./configure && make - compiles all sources

   make check - runs tests

   make install - installs the client and daemon

In some distributions, no ./configure file is provided. To create the
./configure file, you must have autotools installed. Run ./bootstrap
from the qpid/cpp directory, then follow the above instructions.

The INSTALL notes contain more detailed information on compiling and
installing this software.
