GENERIC BUILD NOTES
====================
Some notes on how to build Dash Core based on the [depends](../depends/README.md) build system.
Some notes on how to build vkax Core based on the [depends](../depends/README.md) build system.

Note on old build instructions
------------------------------
In the past, the build documentation contained instructions on how to build Dash with system-wide installed dependencies
In the past, the build documentation contained instructions on how to build vkax with system-wide installed dependencies
like BerkeleyDB 4.8, boost and Qt. Building this way is considered deprecated and only building with the `depends` prefix
is supported today.

Required build tools and environment
------------------------------------
Building the dependencies and Dash Core requires some essential build tools to be installed before. Please see
Building the dependencies and vkax Core requires some essential build tools to be installed before. Please see
[build-unix](build-unix.md), [build-osx](build-osx.md) and [build-windows](build-windows.md) for details.

Building dependencies
---------------------
Dash inherited the `depends` folder from Bitcoin, which contains all dependencies required to build Dash. These
dependencies must be built before Dash can actually be built. To do so, perform the following:

dependencies must be built before vkax can actually be built. To do so, perform the following:

```bash
$ cd depends
$ make -j4 # Choose a good -j value, depending on the number of CPU cores available
$ cd ..
```

This will download and build all dependencies required to build vkax Core. Caching of build results will ensure that only
the packages are rebuilt which have changed since the last depends build.

It is required to re-run the above commands from time to time when dependencies have been updated or added. If this is
not done, build failures might occur when building Dash.

Please read the [depends](../depends/README.md) documentation for more details on supported hosts and configuration
options. If no host is specified (as in the above example) when calling `make`, the depends system will default to your
local host system.
