The command above will create a directory named hello-world-bc that houses a Maven project for the JBI service engine being created here. The name of the directory is taken from the artifactId parameter.

The first three parameters to the mvn command (-DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.servicemix.tooling -DarchetypeArtifactId=servicemix-binding-component -DarchetypeVersion=3.2-incubating-SNAPSHOT) identify which Maven archetype to use for the archetype:create goal, while the last two parameters (-DgroupId=org.apache.servicemix.samples.helloworld.bc -DartifactId=hello-world-bc) uniquely identify the Maven project that is being generated. The groupId is used as the Java package and the artifactId is used as the project name. Therefore, only alphanumeric characters are valid values for the groupId and artifactId parameters. The very last parameter tells Maven to look at the Incubator repository at the ASF.
