Building from the trunk

[Brad Gardner <bg...@gmail.com>]

I wanted to get a copy of the most current 2.2 development build up and
running, so I checked out the "portals/jetspeed-2/portal/trunk" project from
the apache repository.  I've been trying to figure out how to get it built
and deployed so I can see it run.

So far I've ran the command "mvn install" in the root of the project
directory and it was successful.  This appears to have built the API and a
snapshot war file that looks correct.  My question is, where do I go from
here?

Do I need to do a basic install of tomcat to deploy this in?
What about the j2-admin project, do I simply grab the latest version of this
from the trunk of its project, build and deploy it alongside the portal?
I see the subdirectory for an installer, but don't see a way to build it,
can that be done here?

Building this completely from source is new to me, as I've only done a
custom build using the installer.

Thanks in advance for any advice/direction.

Hi Brad,

First note: the current trunk is still very much under development and other (big) refactoring steps are coming up in 
the area of the security and preferences too (branch JS2-869) which are targetted to be merge/moved to trunk when it is 
stabilized.

But the current trunk *is* buildable and usable.
Current instructions on how to build and make use of the new maven-2 build environment are temporarily available from my 
apache home directory here:

   http://people.apache.org/~ate/jetspeed-2.2-maven-plugins/index.html

I send a message to this list a few weeks ago about the new build system and its current state which you might want to 
read also:

With regards to the j2-admin application project: yes, you should build that from trunk and install it in your local 
repository.
Then, when you build the jetspeed-demo portal (see: 
http://people.apache.org/~ate/jetspeed-2.2-maven-plugins/building-jetspeed.html) it will be automatically deployed with 
the portal.

HTH,

Ate
