+Compilation on Java 8
+================================================================================
+
+If you need to compile the Java bindings for Java 8, please follow this steps
+
+- Download the source code of opennebula (available on `OpenNebula code repository <https://www.github.com/OpenNebula/one>`__)
+
+  ``git clone https://www.github.com/OpenNebula/one``
+
+- On the source code, change to the directory ``src/oca/java``
+
+  ``cd one/src/oca/java``
+
+- Download the apache xmlrpc library (note that the URL may change in your case)
+
+  ``curl -OL https://archive.apache.org/dist/ws/xmlrpc/binaries/xmlrpc-3.1.1-bin.tar.gz``
+
+- Uncompress it and move the ``/lib`` directory to the source code dir
+
+  ``tar xzvf xmlrpc-3.1.1-bin.tar.gz; mv xmlrpc-3.1.1/lib .``
+
+- Modify the build script adding to the libraries the xmlrpc library
+
+  ``sed -i 's@^LIB_DIR="/usr/share/java"$@LIB_DIR="/usr/share/java:./lib"@g' build.sh``
+
+- Build the library
+
+  ``build.sh``
+
+The jar file with the bindings will be the ``jar/org.opennebula.client.jar`` file
+
