dh_nativejava

DH_NATIVEJAVA(1)						     Debhelper							  DH_NATIVEJAVA(1)

NAME

       dh_nativejava - compile jar files to native code and register them

SYNOPSIS

       dh_nativejava [debhelper options] [-n] [-o] [--sourcedir=dir]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_nativejava is a debhelper program that is responsible for compiling jars to native code and to make them known to the system.

       It also automatically generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to updated the global classmap database and adds a dependency on
       libgcj-common in the misc:Depends substitution variable.

OPTIONS

       -n, --noscripts
	   Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.

       -o, --onlyscripts
	   Only modify postinst/postrm scripts, do not actually compile any files or register them. May be useful if the files are already built
	   and registered.

       --destdir=directory
	   Use this if you want the compiled files to be put in a directory other than the default of "/usr/lib/gcj"

NOTES

       Note that this command is not idempotent. "dh_clean -k" should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause
       multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
