To build the JAVA part: ant dist

The Java portion of Commons Daemon requires Java 1.3 or later to build

To build the native parts: 1 - jsvc: jsvc is only for Un*x systems cd src/native/unix; configure; make You need a gnu make. The jsvc executable is created in the dist directory. There is a INSTALL.txt in src/native/unix - please have a look at it.

2 - procrun: procrun is only for windows cd src\native\windows\apps cd prunsrv nmake [CPU=(X86|X64|I64)] cd ..\prunmgr nmake [CPU=(X86|X64|I64)] (It is also possible to use the MS development tools).

See also the README files in src\native\windows

To build the documentation: (See http://commons.apache.org/building.html). mvn site:generate (Do not forget to get ../commons-build: (cd ..; svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build/trunk/ commons-build))

To deploy the documentation to the apache site: mvn -Dmaven.username=${user.name} site:deploy

To deploy the Java jars to the Nexus staging repo:

mvn clean mvn deploy -Prelease [-Ptest-deploy]

The test-deploy profile will deploy to target/deploy; omit for the live deploy

Note: do not use clean in the same invocation. Not sure why, but with Commons-Parent v21 this results deploying the non-Maven archives (zip and tar.gz) as well. They can be deleted before closing the repo, but it is easier not to create them.
