Build and execution instructions:
---------------------------------
  NOTE: If you have Security Enhanced Linux, you must update the policy
  and tag the files with the correct SEL contexts, please see the README.

  Install mono 1.1.8 or above, if not already installed.

  In the directory php-java-bridge-p.x.y type:

          mono --version       # 1.0.6 or above.
          gcj --version        # 3.2.3 or above.
          apachectl -version   # Apache 1.3 or above.
          php-config --version # PHP 4.3.4 or above.
          make null --version  # GNU make

          phpize && 
          ./configure --with-mono=/usr/bin/mono &&
          make &&
          su -c "make install"

  If your administrator allows you to dynamically load extensions, you
  can now test the extension by invoking the test.php with the 
  command: php ./tests.mono+net/test.php.

  Please see the output of ./configure --help=recursive for further
  configure options.

------------------------------------
   Permanently activate the module
   -------------------------------

  To permanently activate the extension for all users please add the
  following lines to the php.ini or add a file mono.ini to the
  directory that contains the PHP module descriptions (usually
  /etc/php.d/) with the following content:

          extension = mono.so
          [mono]
          mono.log_level="3"
          mono.log_file="/var/log/php-mono-bridge.log"
          mono.socketname="9167"

  Re-start the web server, for example with the command:

          apachectl restart


  You can start the bridge as a sub-process of apache. Disable
  mono.socketname, and mono.hosts. For example:

          extension = mono.so
          [mono]
          mono.log_level="3"
          mono.log_file="/var/log/php-mono-bridge.log"

  Re-start apache and check if apache has started mono as a
  sub-process.  For example with the commands:

          apachectl restart
          pstree | fgrep httpd


  Check the status:

          echo "<?php phpinfo()?>" | php | fgrep "mono status"

  Other configuration options which should have been set up by the
  configure script but which can be changed later are:

          mono.socketname= <local TCP communication channel >
          mono.hosts     = <add. bridge hosts e.g.: server1:9167;server2:9168>

  Please first look at the output of phpinfo() to see the original
  values.  

---------------------------------------------
  Starting the PHP/Mono Bridge automatically
  ------------------------------------------

  When the mono.socketname and mono.hosts options are not set, the web
  server will start or re-start the mono back-end automatically as a sub
  component when the HTTP service is started or re-started.
