OpenGrok - a wicked fast source browser, now in Debian
-------------------------------------------------------

OpenGrok is a fast and usable source code search and cross reference
engine, written in Java. It helps you search, cross-reference and navigate
your source tree. It can understand various program file formats and
version control histories like SCCS, RCS, CVS and Subversion

OpenGrok is the tool used for the OpenSolaris Source Browser.


Usability notes:
----------------

Please read EXAMPLE.txt for sample automated setups.

OpenGrok uses Suns java, hence you need to run it with proper JAVA_HOME set
up and PATH pointing to Suns java (e.g. run 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-sun/bin/java )

For opengrok as standalone java application to work, one needs to have a
graphical DISPLAY ready and working.

Default webapp directory is /source , if someone wants to change this, 
you need to specify special option to indexer: -w /<webapp_name> , otherwise 
cross-references will NOT work.
Also note, that in run.sh there are sample JAVA_OPTS, where I really recommend
using more memory for indexing (1GB should be more than enough).

After copying/deploying source.war to tomcat, WEB-INF/web.xml needs to 
be corrected and changed from default one to correctly point to sources and 
index directories.
