BuildingCamel uses Maven PrequisitesRequired:
Optional:
Maven optionsTo build camel maven has to be configured to use more memory set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m A normal buildmvn install Doing a Quick BuildThe following avoids running all the unit test cases, we just skip the test running phase and not the building part mvn -Dtest=false -DfailIfNoTests=false clean install Notice that from Camel 1.4 we have made it even easier: mvn -Dtest=false clean install
Using an IDEIf you prefer to use an IDE then you can auto-generate the IDE's project files using maven plugins. e.g. mvn eclipse:eclipse or mvn idea:idea Adding Camel Eclipse templates to your workspacemvn -Psetup.eclipse -Declipse.workspace.dir=/path/to/your/workspace You can also find some helpful notes on usage here Importing into EclipseIf you have not already done so, you will need to make Eclipse aware of the Maven repository so that it can build everything. In the preferences, go to Java->Build Path->Classpath and define a new Classpath Variable named M2_REPO that points to your local Maven repository (i.e., ~/.m2/repository on Unix and c:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.m2\repository on Windows). You can also get Maven to do this for you: mvn eclipse:add-maven-repo -Declipse.workspace=/path/to/the/workspace/ Building with checkstyleTo enable source style checking with checkstyle, build Camel with the -Psourcecheck parameter mvn -Psourcecheck clean install Building source jarsIf you want to build jar files with the source code, that for instance Eclipse can important so you can debug the Camel code as well. Then you can run this command from the camel root folder: mvn clean source:jar install -Dtest=false
