Building Apache OpenJPA Licensed under Apache License 2.0 - http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These instructions describe how to build OpenJPA from source code using the Apache Maven 2 build tool. They are written for use from the console, and are known to work on Linux and Mac OSX. They are also reported to work from Windows. The most up to date version of these instructions may be found on the OpenJPA website at http://openjpa.apache.org/building-openjpa.html 1. Ensure that Java SE 6 is installed and on your path by running: java -version OpenJPA requires Java 1.6 or later to build, but still supports using Java SE 5 for runtime even though some features are only available with Java SE 6. 2. Install the build tool Apache Maven 2.2.1 or later, from: http://maven.apache.org/ If it is installed correctly, typing mvn -v from the console will result in the text "Maven version: 2.2.1" 3. Extract the source archive if you have not already done so. The source will create a new directory named: openjpa--source. Where is the openjpa version, for example apache-openjpa-2.1.0-source. 4. Change to the openjpa source directory, which has already been created in the previous step. 5. Build OpenJPA by running: mvn package or better mvn install. The first time you run the build, many dependencies are automatically resolved and downloaded. It is common for dependency downloading to fail the first time, which will fail the build. If any of these dependency downloads fail, just re-run the command. You may also add the following to your ~/.m2/setting.xml file (see http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-mirror-settings.html) repo.mergere.com http://repo.mergere.com/maven2 central If any tests fail, and you want to ignore the failures, instead run: mvn package -DskipTests An example session as as follows: $ cd /tmp/ $ java -version java version "1.6.0_17" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04-248-10M3025) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.3-b01-101, mixed mode) $ mvn -v Maven version: 2.2.1 $ svn --version svn, version 1.5.5 (r34862) compiled Jan 5 2009, 12:30:39 $ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/trunk/ A trunk/openjpa-lib A trunk/openjpa-lib/src A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org/apache A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org/apache/openjpa A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org/apache/openjpa/lib A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org/apache/openjpa/lib/test A trunk/openjpa-lib/src/test/java/org/apache/openjpa/lib/test/AbstractTestCase.java ...
