+ + ++ This is the Maven generated site for the Acegi-Security project. It is generated as part of an + automated daily build. We intend to expand the information on Acegi which is available here but for + the moment, your best starting point for documentation is Ben Alex's + original reference guide + which provides a comprehensive overview. +
++ For more information on running the build with Maven, see the + build section of the getting started guide. +
++ The main other area of interest at the moment is the generated reports section. + These are produced by the build on a daily basis and include complete Javadoc and source cross-reference. +

+ ++ The first thing to do if you want to use Maven is download and install it. + The build has been tested with version 1-rc3 so use this or a later version if possible. +
++ One of the main differences between Maven and plain ant is that Maven manages + external dependencies for your projects and (at least in theory) you should no + longer have to store third-party jar files in your CVS tree. It maintains a local repository of + versioned libraries and shares them between your Maven projects. If it can't find the necessary + files there it will attempt to download them from the main Maven repository at www.ibiblio.org/maven. + So to use the Maven build, you need to have a network connection available for the inital download of + the project dependencies (and any others that Maven itself requires). +
++ Once you have Maven installed, building the project should be as simple as typing "maven jar" + from the command line. Providing there are no failures in the test suite, this will create the + project jar files in the "target" directory. For more information on using Maven, have a look at the + Maven web site. +
