Guide to building Continuum
* Why would I want to build Continuum?
You might want to build Continuum yourself for one of two reasons:
* To build the source release of Continuum
* to try out a bleeding edge feature or bugfix (issues can be found in
{{{http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM} JIRA}}), but you can try our SNAPSHOTs: {{http://vmbuild.apache.org/}}
* to fix a problem you are having and submit a patch to the development team.
Note that for releases, you may also make use of pre-built binaries.
* Checking out the sources
All of the source code for Continuum and its related libraries is in a Subversion repository.
You can also {{{http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/continuum/} browse the repository}}, or checkout specific modules directly.
All SVN instructions are available on the {{{http://continuum.apache.org/source-repository.html}Source Repository page}}.
* Building the sources
** Prerequisites
* JDK 5 or greater
* Maven 2.0.7 or greater
** Building
To build Continuum, you run this command from the top (trunk) directory:
-----------------
mvn clean install
