Hello World from OSS Silicon Valley

_ Install&Setup

_ Command Line

Prerequisite

• JDK is installed.
• Eclipse installation (You can refer HowToUse/Eclipse/4.3)

Step.1

Download Maven from http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi and unzip it.

(In case download file is tar ball)

$ tar xzvf <download file>

Step.2

Set path. (In case you are using Windows)

Item	Description	Example
MAVEN_HOME	Maven Home path	"C:\apache-maven-3.2.2"
Path	Maven executable path	"%MAVEN_HOME%\bin"

The setting of "MAVEN_HOME" is not mandatory. Just I prefer to set "HOME" variable to manage multiple versions' path.

Step.3

Confirm if the maven works

$ mvn --version

_ Eclipse Plugin

(If you installed Eclipse for Java EE, Maven plugin, m2e is installed by default. Here, I use Eclipse 4.3 (Kepler) for explanation.)

Step.1

Launch eclipse.

Step.2

Choose "Help" -> "About Eclipse" and check if the plugin for Maven (m2e) has already been installed. If the icon for m2e is shown up, you have plugin.

Step.3

Step.4

Enter the name and location of plugin.

Step.5

Check the install item and click "next" button.
