Setting up the development environment

Getting the build process running for Moblogger is remarkably easy, thanks to Maven. Here's what you need to do:

• Check out module "moblogger" from the CVS repository (anonymous). Further details are provided on SourceForge.
• Download and unzip Maven.
• Set up the neccessary environment variables (JAVA_HOME, MAVEN_HOME), put the maven/bin directory in your PATH...
• From the moblogger root directory (where project.xml is), run "maven jar" - this will download all sorts of dependecies and finally build moblogger.jar in the "target" subdirectory.
• Edit conf/agentsettings.xml and start moblogger using bin/runagent.bat.

Setting up Eclipse project

• Start Eclipse
• Under "Window"->"Open perspective"->"CVS Repository exploring"
• In "CVS repositories" view:
• Right click
• Select "New" -> "Repository location"
• set host to : "cvs.moblogger.sourceforge.net"
• set repository path: "/cvsroot/moblogger"
• set user to: "anonymous"
• Click finish
• Navigate to HEAD -> moblogger
• Right click, and select "Check out as Project"
• Drink a beer during the checkout (optional:-)
• From a command prompt enter:

  "C:>cd ECLIPSE_PATH\workspace\moblogger"

  "...\eclipse\workspace\moblogger>maven eclipse:add-maven-repo"

  This will download all the dependencies, and set up maven_repo for eclipse

Congratulation, you've got the fresh code of moblogger as an eclipse project!
