Project Set-Up | |
============== | |

Building Apache Pivot Quickstart Archetype | |
========================================== | |
* To install the archetype in a local Maven repository: | |
$ cd pivot-archetype-quickstart | |
$ mvn -U install | |
$ cd .. | |
* To Test, generate a Pivot Project (called "myapp") with it | |
(and give to it the desired package name when requested, like "com.mycompany.myapp", | |
note that usually the ".myapp" part in the package is written only if overridden here): | |
$ mvn archetype:generate -U -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.pivot -DarchetypeArtifactId=pivot-archetype-quickstart -DarchetypeVersion=1.0.2 -DgroupId=com.mycompany -DartifactId=myapp -Dversion=1.0 | |
then, compile the project and run it. | |
* Note that all maven -U flags shown here are optional, but useful to ensure that latest versions will be used. |
