Apache Maven What is it? ----------- Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a Project Object Model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information. Documentation ------------- The most up-to-date documentation can be found at http://maven.apache.org/. Release Notes ------------- The full list of changes can be found at http://maven.apache.org/release-notes.html. System Requirements ------------------- JDK: 1.5 or above (this is to execute Maven - it still allows you to build against 1.3 and prior JDK's). Memory: No minimum requirement. Disk: No minimum requirement. Approximately 100MB will be used for your local repository, however this will vary depending on usage and can be removed and redownloaded at any time. Operating System: No minimum requirement. On Windows, Windows NT and above or Cygwin is required for the startup scripts. Tested on Windows XP, Fedora Core and Mac OS X. Installing Maven ---------------- 1) Unpack the archive where you would like to store the binaries, eg: Unix-based Operating Systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X) tar zxvf apache-maven-3.0.x.tar.gz Windows 2000/XP unzip apache-maven-3.0.x.zip 2) A directory called "apache-maven-3.0.x" will be created. 3) Add the bin directory to your PATH, eg: Unix-based Operating Systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X) export PATH=/usr/local/apache-maven-3.0.x/bin:$PATH Windows 2000/XP set PATH="c:\program files\apache-maven-3.0.x\bin";%PATH% 4) Make sure JAVA_HOME is set to the location of your JDK 5) Run "mvn --version" to verify that it is correctly installed.
