1 These folders host the maven metadata which are used to 2 build release binaries for hosting in the central maven 3 repositories. These are not considered the "canonical" 4 build, but are maintained seperately by (a) volunteer(s) 5 with an interest in easy use of Guava by the Maven build 6 system. 7 8 As a convenience, these folders have been set up to 9 provide alternate packaging of the sub-pmodules, which 10 correspond to their respective java packages, with 11 sources symbolically linked back to the main project. 12 This will work to allow command-line builds on MacOS X 13 or other Unix platforms which support symbolic linking, 14 but is not known to work on Windows platforms. 15 (Obviously the deployed binaries in maven repostories 16 will work fine on any compliant JVM). 17 18 The maintainers of these metadata have used M2Eclipse 19 to import these projects directly into Eclipse. Please 20 remember that this codebase uses @Override annotations 21 on methods which implement an interface method, and 22 therefore require a JDK 1.6 (or newer 1.5 with the 23 appropriate fix) to support this behaviour. Executing 24 Maven with an appropriate JAVA_HOME env is sufficient, 25 and these metadata do not have toolchain restrictions 26 currently set up. 27 28 Christian 29 cgruber (a] google.com 30
