4 - Groovy LDAP : Buildng the Software
Building the software
Resolving the dependencies
Groovy LDAP needs Java 5 to compile. Besides this, it has only one dependency: Groovy itself. For LDAP communication, JNDI and its LDAP provider are used. These are part of the JDK since ages.
In order to build the software, Apache ant is used. For dependency resolution we use Ivy. You need to configure your ant tool to use Ivy. One option is to place the corresponding jar file ivy-1.4.1.jar (or later) in the lib folder of your ant distribution.
Building with ant and ivy (deprecated)
Simply change to the groovyldap directory and type ant.
D:\Apache>cd groovyldap D:\Apache\groovyldap>ant Buildfile: build.xml prepare: [mkdir] Created dir: D:\Apache\groovyldap\dist [mkdir] Created dir: D:\Apache\groovyldap\dist\classes [mkdir] Created dir: D:\Apache\groovyldap\lib resolve: [ivy:retrieve] :: Ivy 1.4.1 - 20061109165313 :: http://ivy.jayasoft.org/ :: ... jarfile: [jar] Building jar: D:\Apache\groovyldap\dist\groovy-ldap.jar BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 7 seconds D:\Apache\groovyldap>_
Done.
The jarfile which includes the software, groovy-ldap.jar, is created in the dist directory. Feel free to call ant clean afterwards.
Building with Maven
We are changing the build process to Maven 2, in order to have the same build tool for all sub projects within Apache Directory.
Simply change to the groovyldap directory and type mvn install.
