| Basic Setup for Building and Running the Demos |
| ============================================== |
| |
| As described in the installation notes, extract the Apache CXF |
| binary distribution archive into an installation directory |
| under the root drive. This creates the apache-cxf-x.x.x folder, |
| which includes all of the product subdirectories. |
| |
| To build and run the demos, you must install the J2SE Development |
| Kit (JDK) 1.8 or later. |
| |
| All of the samples (with the exception of the "antbuild" sample, |
| which shows how to manage a project using Ant as the buildtool) |
| are built using Apache Maven, version 3.1 or newer. You can |
| build the Mavenized samples all at once by running |
| "mvn clean install" from the samples root folder or by running |
| the same command within individual sample folders. For running |
| each sample, follow the READMEs located in each sample's folder. |
| |
| To be able to run the Maven "mvn" command from any folder, be |
| sure to add the MAVEN_HOME/bin directory to your system PATH |
| variable. |
| |
| |
| Building the Demos in a Servlet Container Using Apache Maven |
| ===================================================================== |
| |
| "mvn clean install" will generate a WAR file for the servlet-based |
| examples. Either the WAR can be manually copied to your servlet |
| container's war deployment directory (webapps by default with Tomcat) |
| or the Tomcat Maven Plugin (http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin.html) |
| can be used to auto-install the WAR onto Tomcat. |
