+
+ <p>This was done using NetBeans 7, which comes bundeled with Maven 3,
needed to build James 3.
+ Older versions of NetBeans should be able to build James fine, provided
that you configure them to use an instance of Maven 3, if they do not have it.
+ I used james 3.0-beta1 release and it builded in 7:40 min on my notebook
running Debian Squeeze.
+ </p>
+
+ <subsection name="Getting the sources from the repository">
+ <p>Building James with NetBeans is very easy as it comes with
Subersion and Maven support already build in.
+ Maven is bundeled with the IDE, but Subverion is not, so you will
have to install Subversion yourself and NetBeans will be able to use it.
+ You can get more details on how to install and where to get
Subversion from the NetBeans Help menu by clicking on <strong>Help
Contents</strong> and from there go to the <strong>IDE Basics->Version Control
and File Hierarchy->Subversion</strong> topic.
+ </p>
+ <p>For Linux users, Subversion is probably packaged by your
distribution so use your distribution tools to install it (aptitude, yum,
etc.)</p>
+ <p>Once you have Subversion, go to
<strong>Team->Subversion->Checkout</strong> menu entry. <br/>
+ You will see an dialog window used to enter the information about
the Subversion repository you are going to use. It looks like this:
+ <img src="./images/netbeans/netbeans-svn-checkout1.png"/>. <br/>
+ In the <code>Repository URL</code> field enter the location for
James repository and click <code>Next</code>.
+ You can use the following URL to get the trunk or developement
version:
+ <a
href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/server/trunk";>http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/server/trunk</a>.<br/>
+ After this you will be presented with another dialog window where
you can configure which folders to check out and where to save them on your
machine.
+ <img src="./images/netbeans/netbeans-svn-checkout2.png"/>. <br/>
+ If you supplied the above URL you can click <code>Finish</code> to
get trunk version and start hacking.
+ You can choose another folder by clicking <code>Browse</code>. A new
dialog window will open and from there you cand browse
+ the whole subversion repository. I wanted to build James 3.0beta so
I choosed <code>james-serve-3.0-beta1</code> under james/server/tags/ folder.
+ <img src="./images/netbeans/netbeans-svn-checkout-browse.png"/>.
<br/>
+ </p>
+ <p>After you click <code>Finish</code> NetBeans will checkout the
sources. It will detect the Maven project and ask you if you wish to open the
project.
+ If you open the project you will see in the Projects Window
(<code>CTRL+1</code> if not visible) something similar to the next image:<br/>
+ <img src="./images/netbeans/netbeans-james-project.png"/>.
+ </p>
+
+ </subsection>
+
+ <subsection name="Building the project">
+ <p> Building the project does not require too much work. Just go to
<code>Run->Build Project</code> menu option.
+ Make sure that James is the main project (if you have other projects
open) or NetBeans will build that project instead of James.
+ Once the build is finished you will find the binary distribution in
<code>container-spring/target</code> directory.
