THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
Building
Camel uses Maven as its build tool. If you don't fancy using Maven you can use your IDE directly or Download a distribution or JAR.
Prequisites
Required:
- Download and install Maven.
- Get the latest Source
- Java 1.5
Optional:
- Prince should be in the executable PATH to generate the PDF documentation
Maven options
To build camel maven has to be configured to use more memory
| Code Block |
|---|
set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m |
A normal build
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn install |
Doing a Quick Build
The following avoids running all the unit test cases, we just skip the test running phase and not the building part
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn -Dtest=false -DfailIfNoTests=false clean install |
Notice that from Camel 1.4 we have made it even easier:
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn -Dtest=false clean install |
Using an IDE
If you prefer to use an IDE then you can auto-generate the IDE's project files using maven plugins. e.g.
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn eclipse:eclipse |
or
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn idea:idea |
Adding Camel Eclipse templates to your workspace
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn -Psetup.eclipse -Declipse.workspace.dir=/path/to/your/workspace |
You can also find some helpful notes on usage here.
Importing into Eclipse
If you have not already done so, you will need to make Eclipse aware of the Maven repository so that it can build everything. In the preferences, go to Java->Build Path->Classpath and define a new Classpath Variable named M2_REPO that points to your local Maven repository (i.e., ~/.m2/repository on Unix and c:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.m2\repository on Windows).
You can also get Maven to do this for you:
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn eclipse:add-maven-repo -Declipse.workspace=/path/to/the/workspace/ |
Building with checkstyle
To enable source style checking with checkstyle, build Camel with the -Psourcecheck parameter
| Code Block |
|---|
mvn -Psourcecheck clean install |
