This is some quick info about the Mavenization (m10n) of Cocoon 2.2.

There are also some Daisy documentation pages about this, for more "stable" information:

PREREQUISITES
-------------
You need a JDK, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x, or 1.7.x.
When experimenting with trunk, 1.5.x is probably the best bet.

Maven 2 must be installed (at least 2.0.9).


MAVEN REPOSITORY MIRRORS
------------------------
Using a Maven mirror isn't necessary anymore.


HOW TO BUILD THE COCOON WEBAPP
------------------------------

Since Cocoon release 2.2, Cocoon relies on Maven 2 for its build
process. 

To build Cocoon, use the following command:

  $ ./build.sh install

In case of any failures, repeat command as necessary till you see
the message:

  BUILD SUCCESSFUL

If you have consistent build failures due to a missing cocoon-rcl
artefact, then run first

  $ cd ../tools
  $ mvn clean install

If you have build failures due to out-of-memory conditions, increase
the JVM maximum memory limit in build.sh:
 
  $ MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx256m"


HOW TO MOUNT THE PROJECTS IN ECLIPSE
------------------------------------

from /trunk, run

  $ ./build.sh eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse

Next go to eclipse, and make sure you haven't got trunk mounted as a
project already.  Also remove .classpath and .project files possibly
remaining in /trunk from a previous project mount.
Do File-Import->Existing projects into workspace, then
point to your trunk directory and it should detect the newly created
blocks as projects.

Note that you need to declare the M2_REPO classpath variable in your
workspace, it should point to your local m2 repository.

You can also get eclipse to download the sources of the dependent libraries and attach them 
to the jars in eclipse :

  $ mvn -Declipse.downloadSources=true eclipse:eclipse

HOW TO MOUNT THE PROJECTS IN INTELLIJ
------------------------------------

First, build all the projects as described above.
Next, from /trunk, run

  $ mvn -P allblocks idea:idea

In IntelliJ select File - Open Project...  Navigate to the trunk directory and select cocoon.ipr.

HOW TO START THE COCOON WEBAPP
------------------------------

Checkout complete trunk and build it. If clean rebuild is desired,
use command:

  $ ./build.sh clean install

Call this until you get "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" - sometimes downloads from maven
repositories are temporarily unaccessible and cause the build to fail.

To start Cocoon within Jetty, use command:

  $ cocoon.sh

Point your browser to http://localhost:8888/

(Don't use jetty:run-exploded as in this case the jetty6 plugin will
 alter the webapp build by the Cocoon deployer again!)


HOW TO DEBUG THE COCOON WEBAPP
------------------------------

To start Cocoon with JVM debug enabled, use command:

  $ cocoon.sh debug

Then tell your IDE to connect to JVM debug on port localhost:5005.
