| <span class="emphasis"><em>Apache Maven</em></span>, or Maven for short, is a software project management and comprehension tool |
| which uses a central <span class="emphasis"><em>Project Object Model</em></span> (POM) to manage a project’s build, reporting |
| and documentation generation. POM files (<code class="literal">pom.xml</code>) are included in the projects for |
| GreenPages. |
| </p><p> |
| To install Maven, visit the Maven website (<a class="ulink" href="http://maven.apache.org" target="_top">http://maven.apache.org</a>) |
| and follow the download instructions from there. |
| This document has been written and tested with Maven version 2.2.0. The rest of the document |
| assumes that Maven |
| commands (<code class="literal">mvn ???</code>) are available from the command line. |
