Something bizarre happened with commit 8f52a622d0d883ca5e9f60ba7754ed51de38cc5c in April 2015. It reverted the changes from both c1111cc156684b15938ab3f8e34df9f4b64f57c4 and ada112a6a37dce8ddf48e2238904421b2ca8e0dc. This commit fixes that.
ActiveMQ Artemis
This file describes some minimum 'stuff one needs to know' to get started coding in this project.

For details about the modifying the code, building the project, running tests, IDE integration, etc. see our Hacking Guide.
Building the ASYNC IO library
ActiveMQ Artemis provides two journal persistence types, NIO (which uses the Java NIO libraries), and ASYNCIO which interacts with the linux kernel libaio library. The ASYNCIO journal type should be used where possible as it is far superior in terms of performance.
ActiveMQ Artemis does not ship with the Artemis Native ASYNCIO library in the source distribution. These need to be built prior to running "mvn install", to ensure that the ASYNCIO journal type is available in the resulting build. Don't worry if you don't want to use ASYNCIO or your system does not support libaio, ActiveMQ Artemis will check at runtime to see if the required libraries and system dependencies are available, if not it will default to using NIO.
To build the ActiveMQ Artemis ASYNCIO native libraries, please follow the instructions in the artemis-native/README.
Documentation
Our documentation is always in sync with our releases at the Apache ActiveMQ Artemis website.
Or you can also look at the current master version on github.
Examples
To run an example firstly make sure you have run
$ mvn -Prelease install
If the project version has already been released then this is unnecessary.
Each individual example can be run using this command from its corresponding directory:
$ mvn verify
If you wish to run groups of examples then use this command from a parent directory (e.g. examples/features/standard):
$ mvn -Pexamples verify
Recreating the examples
If you are trying to copy the examples somewhere else and modifying them. Consider asking Maven to explicitly list all the dependencies:
# if trying to modify the 'topic' example:
cd examples/jms/topic && mvn dependency:list
