BuildGuide

This README is for building rapla from source

1. Get the source:

Download the Source-Distribution Downloads

If you want to checkout the latest development version use

https://github.com/rapla/rapla

and read the CheckingOutRapla.

2. Build Rapla:

We use the ant tool for our build process. Ant is the java-equivalent to make.

Use the following batch files to start the ant.jar included with the rapla source distribution.

build.sh (Linux/Unix)

build.bat (Win)

Calling build with no arguments will create a Binary-Distribution in the sub-folder dist. There you will find the scripts to start rapla. (see Installation)

You can call build with different arguments:

argument	description
choose-target (default)	Executes the target specified in build.properties. Default is dist-bin.
dist-bin	Creates a new Binary-Distribution in the folder dist
build	Builds a new rapla.jar and rapla-client.jar and rapla.war in the build sub-folder
clean	Deletes the build sub-folder
clean-dist	Deletes the dist sub-folder
javadocs	create the Javadoc in the build sub-folder

Pass the target as a parameter to ant e.g. build.sh dist-bin

You can also change the target in build.properties so you dont't have to pass any parameter to ant at all (since version 0.10.0). build.properties will be created from build.properties.template when you call build the first time.

For a complete list of all targets use the -projecthelp option
