 Build [libcudf](../cpp) first, and make sure the JDK is installed and available. Specify

-that Apache Arrow is linked statically to libcudf, as this will help create a jar that
-does not require Arrow and its dependencies to be available in the runtime environment.
+the following cmake options to the libcudf build:

+These options:
+- Disable large string support, see https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf/issues/16215
+- Statically link Arrow to libcudf to remove Arrow as a runtime dependency.
 
 After building libcudf, the Java bindings can be built via Maven, e.g.:
