+== How to build IoTivity projects ==
+
+IoTivity includes a series of projects. You can find all these projects here:
+ https://gerrit.iotivity.org/gerrit/#/admin/projects/
+
+You can build IoTivity project on Linux / Windows / MAC OSX for various OS(
+Linux, Tizen, Android, Arduino, Windows, MAC OSX, IOS ...).
+The output of the build is in:
+ <top directory of the project>/out/<target_os>/<target_arch>/<build_type>/
+e.g.
+ oic-resource/out/android/armeabi-v7a/release/.
+
+This document takes 'iotivity' project as example, the way to build other
+projects is almost the same.
+
+=== IoTivity project build tool scons ===
+
+Scons is a cross-platform build tool, its usage is quite similar to GNU make.
+To build a project, you just require to run following command at the directory
+where a SConstruct file exists(SConstruct is the entrance of scons build, it's
+equivalent to Makefile of 'make') :
+ $ scons [options] [target]
+
+In additional, usually the scons build script of a project provides useful help
+information(include build options). To see the help information:
+ $ scons [options] -h
+
+Note: If no value is specified for an option, the default value will be used.
+The change of options value may impact the output.
+
+
+=== Prerequites ===
+
+* 1. Scons
+
+Please refer to the following page to install scons:
+ http://www.scons.org/doc/production/HTML/scons-user.html#chap-build-install
+(Note: on Windows, install Python 2.x before installing scons)
+
+* 2. IDE/SDK Prerequites
+To build for some OS (Android / Arduino / IOS ...), an IDE/SDK may be required,
+please go to the relative page to download and install the required IDE/SDK.
+
+Android:
+To build for Android, Andorid NDK and SDK are required.
+ Android NDK: http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html
+ Android SDK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
+(Note: as in some IoTivity projects, C++11 features are used, recommend Android
+ NDK >= r10, according to our test result r10c is the best one currently)
+
+Arduino:
+To build for Arduino, Arduino IDE is required.
+ Arduino IDE: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
+ (Note: recommend install Arduino IDE >=1.5.7)
+
+Arduino builds are dependent on latest Time library. Download it from here:
+ http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Time.html
+and extract to <arduino_ide_root>/libraries/
+
+(Note: If you are using Arduino IDE 1.5.8 BETA on Windows, it may pop up some
+dll isn't found. please copy relative dll from the IDE directory to
+C:\Windows\SysWOW64. IDE 1.5.7 doesn't have this issue. Other version IDE isn't
+tested.)
+
+Apple:
+To build for Mac OSX or IOS, Xcode is required.
+ Xcode: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/downloads/
+
+Java:
+To build the Java code, JDK is required.
+ JDK: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
+(If the project doesn't include Java code or you wouldn't like build the
+Java codes, this isn't required)
+
+(Note: for convenience, suggest add the IDE/SDK path in environment variable,
+so you don't need to add it in command line each time. The build script will
+guide you to do that.)
+
+* 3. External libraries
+For Android and IOS build, most of the external libraries are provided as
+binary in oic-utilities project (https://oic-review.01.org/gerrit/oic-utilities).
+Please download it in the same directory as other IoTivity projects. If it's
+in different directory, an additional option (OIC_UITLS) will be required. The
+build command should be:
+ $ scons OIC_UITLS=<path to oic-utilities> [other options] [target]
+
+(Note: for convenience, you can also add it in environment variable. So you
+don't need to add this option in command line each time.)
+ e.g.:
+ $ export OIC_UITLS=<path to oic-utilities project>
+
+
+=== Build IoTivity project on Linux(Ubuntu) ===
+
+Generally, it's required to specify the target OS and target ARCH, that's to say
+tell Scons which OS and which ARCH you'd like build this project for. By default,
+the target OS and ARCH is the same as the host.
+
+Some more options may be required, please care the 'error' notification when build.
+For help about how to set an option, please run:
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=xxx TARGET_ARCH=yyy [XXX=zzz ...] -h
+
+1. Build IoTivity project for Linux
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libboost-program-options-dev libexpat1-dev
+ $ scons
+
+2. Build IoTivity project for Android
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=android TARGET_ARCH=xxx
+(xxx can be x86, armeabi, armeabi-v7a, armeabi-v7a-hard. To see all of its
+allowed value, please execute command 'scons TARGET_OS=android -Q -h')
+
+Note: Currently as x86_64/arm64_v8a external library binaries aren't provided,
+you may meet link problem if build executable binary which depends on external
+library for x86_64/arm64_v8a.
+
+3. Build IoTivity project for Arduino
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=arduino TARGET_ARCH=xxx BOARD=yyy
+(xxx can be avr, arm; yyy is the name of the board, to get its allowed value
+run: scons TARGET_OS=arduino TARGET_ARCH=xxx -h. You may see a option 'CPU' in
+the output of above command line, that's due to some boards have different
+processors, to specify the processor, add 'CPU=zzz' in the command line. If no
+'CPU' option exists, that means the board only support one kind of processor,
+it's unnecessary to specify it)
+
+4. Build Iotivity project for Tizen
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ gbs build -A xxx --packaging-dir tools/tizen/
+(xxx can be i586 or armv7l, we provide the spec file required by gbs tool at
+toools/tizen directory. gbs is default build tool for Tizen platfrom, we can
+refer the following wiki to setup Tizen development environment:
+https://source.tizen.org/documentation/developer-guide/getting-started-guide)
+
+=== Build IoTivity project on Windows ===
+
+1. Build IoTivity project for Android(It's the same as on Ubuntu)
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=android TARGET_ARCH=xxx
+(xxx can be x86, armeabi, armeabi-v7a, armeabi-v7a-hard ...)
+
+2. Build IoTivity project for Arduino(It's the same as on Ubuntu)
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=arduino TARGET_ARCH=xxx BOARD=yyy
+(xxx can be avr, arm; yyy is the name of the board, to get its allowed value
+run: scons TARGET_OS=arduino TARGET_ARCH=xxx -h. You may see a option 'CPU' in
+the output of above command line, that's due to some boards have different
+processor, to specify the processor, add 'CPU=zzz' in the command line. If no
+'CPU' option exists, that means the board only support one kind of processor,
+it's unnecessary to specify it)
+
+
+Note: Currently most IoTivity project doesn't support Windows, so you can't set
+TARGET_OS to 'windows' except the project support Windows.
+
+That's to say if the project doesn't support Windows, run:
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=windows ....
+or run on Windows
+ $ scons
+may always fail.
+
+
+=== Build IoTivity project on Mac OSX ===
+
+1. Build IoTivity project for Mac OSX
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons SYS_VERSION=yyy
+(yyy is the OSX version, e.g. 10.9)
+
+2. Build IoTivity project for Android(It's the same as on Ubuntu)
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=android TARGET_ARCH=xxx
+(xxx can be x86, armeabi, armeabi-v7a, armeabi-v7a-hard)
+
+3. Build IoTivity project for IOS
+ $ cd <top directory of the project>
+ $ scons TARGET_OS=ios TARGET_ARCH=xxx SYS_VERSION=yyy
+(xxx can be i386, x86_64, armv7, armv7s, arm64, yyy is IOS version, e.g. 7.0)
+
+Note:
+1) for convenience, a script (auto_build.sh) is provided to run possible build
+at once. Following is the usage:
+
+To build:
+ $ auto_build.sh <path-to-android-ndk> <path-to-arduino-home>
+To clean:
+ $ auto_build.sh -c
+
+2) For Arduino build, the Time library should >=1.3. The old can only be built
+with Arduino IDE 1.0.x
