The Maven build works as far as I can tell From the java/trunk
directory, you can run "mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean install" and
the core, parser, security, & examples modules will be built. There
is no Maven build for the server module.
An alternate way to create the Maven projects (and one that will work
with the security module), is to check out the main project (at least
java/trunk), and from java/trunk run "mvn eclipse:eclipse". Then
import each project. If you have the SVN checkout as a project in
Maven, you'll need an Eclipse 3.2 to import these projects without an
error regarding "overlapping projects'. The alternative is to run
"mvn -Declipse.workspace=/path/to/workspace eclipse:eclipse", which
will set up a project where the source files are linked to the actual
location.
In either case, you'll also need to have a buid path variable for
"M2_REPO" defined to match your local repository (~/.m2/repository).
You can do this manually, or by running "mvn
-Declipse.workspace=<path-to-eclipse-workspace>
eclipse:add-maven-repo"
See the guide on using Eclipse & Maven:

I'll start another thread to discuss the unit testing failures when using Maven.

There are several ways of building the code.
1. With Maven. I am positively clueless when it comes to maven and I'm
not sure if the current build still works. I know for a fact that at
least one or two of the tests will fail due to dependency version
issues. It would be excellent if we could get a maven expert to review
the build and ensure it works
2. With Ant. The java/trunk/build module contains the ant script. From
the trunk root, first invoke ant -f build/build.xml download to pull
down all of the required dependency jars, then invoke ant -f
build/build.xml dist to build the dist image.
3. With Eclipse. From within eclipse, check out each of the following
as projects. Do not worry about the project type for now:
* /java/trunk/build project name: build
* /java/trunk/core project name: core
* /java/trunk/dependencies project name: dependencies
* /java/trunk/docs project name: docs
* /java/trunk/examples project name: examples
* /java/trunk/parser project name: parser
* /java/trunk/server project name: server
* /java/trunk/security project name: security
* /java/branches/snell_sandbox project name: snell_sandbox
Then, from the eclipse workspace root, invoke
ant -f snell_sandbox/eclipse/setupeclipse.xml
This will copy all of the necessary eclipse project files over to
the appropriate projects in the eclipse workspace. Restart your
eclipse workbench and all of your projects should be ready to go.
Note: the security module will contain compile errors due to missing
XML Security jars. To build and use that module, you'll need to
download the Apache XML Security and the Bouncy Castle Crypto
implementation.
