+Before compiling Java binding you first need to have the C runtime
+compiled and installed. In order to compile the binding itself you need
+Eclipse plus the plugin for compiling C projects in
+Eclipse (https://www.eclipse.org/cdt). Follow the instructions on
+the web site.
+
+After you have done the above, import the directory where you have found
+this INSTALL file as an existing project in Eclipse. The project has
+two configurations one for Posix (Linux) systems and one for Windows.
+You can change the configuration by right clicking on the project
+and choosing "Properties" from the menu. Then go to C/C++ Build
+and click on the button "Manage Configurations". Change the active
+configuration from there. Now go to "C/C++ Build / Tool Chain Editor"
+and check whether the current tool chain is the one for your platform.
+
+On Windows you might also have to change the following directories
+from the "Properties" dialog:
+
+C/C++ Build / Settings / GCC C Compiler / Includes / Include paths
+C/C++ Build / Settings / MinGW C++ Linker / Libraries / Library search paths
