| <div class="section"><h2>Building and Installing Log4j<a name="Building_and_Installing_Log4j"></a></h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| <i>The information below is for developers who want to modify Log4j or |
| contribute to Log4j. If your goal is to add logging to your application |
| you don't need to build from the source code, |
| you can <a href="download.html">download</a> the pre-built binaries instead. |
| </i> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Log4j 2.x is hosted in the Apache Software Foundation's subversion repository. Details on obtaining the |
| most current source code can be found at |
| <a href="./source-repository.html">Log4j Source Repository</a>. The source from the latest release may be |
| obtained by downloading it using the instructions at <a href="./download.html">Log4j Downloads</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Log4j 2.x uses Maven 3 as its build tool. To build and install Log4j in your local Maven cache, from |
| the root directory run: <kbd>mvn install</kbd> |
| </p> |
| <p class="bg-warning">Note that in order to build the website, you need to use |
| <a class="externalLink" href="http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi#Maven_3.0.5">Maven 3.0.5</a> due to plugin compatibility |
| issues as documented in |
| <a class="externalLink" href="http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-695">MSITE-695</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Then to build the full site, you must use a local staging directory: |
| </p> |
| <div><pre>mvn site |
| [Windows] mvn site:stage-deploy -DstagingSiteURL=file:///%HOME%/log4j |
| [Unix] mvn site:stage-deploy -DstagingSiteURL=file:///$HOME/log4j</pre></div> |
| <p> |
| To rebuild only what's changed and execute the tests, run: <kbd>mvn test</kbd> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| To rebuild from scratch, add "clean", for example: <kbd>mvn clean test</kbd> |
| </p> |
