| These folders host the maven metadata which are used to |
| build release binaries for hosting in the central maven |
| repositories. These are not considered the "canonical" |
| build, but are maintained seperately by (a) volunteer(s) |
| with an interest in easy use of Guava by the Maven build |
| system. |
| |
| As a convenience, these folders have been set up to |
| provide alternate packaging of the sub-pmodules, which |
| correspond to their respective java packages, with |
| sources symbolically linked back to the main project. |
| This will work to allow command-line builds on MacOS X |
| or other Unix platforms which support symbolic linking, |
| but is not known to work on Windows platforms. |
| (Obviously the deployed binaries in maven repostories |
| will work fine on any compliant JVM). |
| |
| The maintainers of these metadata have used M2Eclipse |
| to import these projects directly into Eclipse. Please |
| remember that this codebase uses @Override annotations |
| on methods which implement an interface method, and |
| therefore require a JDK 1.6 (or newer 1.5 with the |
| appropriate fix) to support this behaviour. Executing |
| Maven with an appropriate JAVA_HOME env is sufficient, |
| and these metadata do not have toolchain restrictions |
| currently set up. |
