If you would +rather build without Maven, see below. + +1) Install Apache Maven if you don't have it: + + http://maven.apache.org/ + +2) Build the C++ code, or obtain a binary distribution of protoc. If + you install a binary distribution, make sure that it is the same + version as this package. If in doubt, run: + + $ protoc --version + + You will need to place the protoc executable in ../src. (If you + built it yourself, it should already be there.) + +3) Run the tests: + + $ mvn test + + If some tests fail, this library may not work correctly on your + system. Continue at your own risk. + +4) Install the library into your Maven repository: + + $ mvn install + +5) If you do not use Maven to manage your own build, you can build a + .jar file to use: + + $ mvn package + + The .jar will be placed in the "target" directory. + +Installation - 'Lite' Version - With Maven +========================================== + +Building the 'lite' version of the Java Protocol Buffers library is +the same as building the full version, except that all commands are +run using the 'lite' profile. (see +http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html) + +E.g. to install the lite version of the jar, you would run: + + $ mvn install -P lite + +The resulting artifact has the 'lite' classifier. To reference it +for dependency resolution, you would specify it as: + + + com.google.protobuf + protobuf-java + ${version} + lite + + +Installation - Without Maven +============================ + +If you would rather not install Maven to build the library, you may +follow these instructions instead. Note that these instructions skip +running unit tests. + +1) Build the C++ code, or obtain a binary distribution of protoc. If + you install a binary distribution, make sure that it is the same + version as this package. If in doubt, run: + + $ protoc --version + + If you built the C++ code without installing, the compiler binary + should be located in ../src. + +2) Invoke protoc to build DescriptorProtos.java: + + $ protoc --java_out=src/main/java -I../src \ + ../src/google/protobuf/descriptor.proto + +3) Compile the code in src/main/java using whatever means you prefer. + +4) Install the classes wherever you prefer. + +Usage +===== + +The complete documentation for Protocol Buffers is available via the +web at: + + http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/ -- cgit v1.2.3
