build explanation #24

Closed sbowman-mitre closed 8 years ago

Hi, it's not clear from just examining the files in the repo how to build the code. There is a build.xml, so ant? Then there is also a maven directory, but with no fully formed pom in it. Can you clarify how to go about building the code and run the tests?

fwierzbicki commented 8 years ago

Yep, ant is the current build system, and the default when calling "ant" is to build a dev distribution so that you can run it like : ./dist/bin/jython

Note that jython3 is pre-alpha!

Oh and the maven directory is strictly for creating packages to upload to the maven repository - and pretty much no one other than me ever uses it :) -- there are no current plans to make Jython a maven project, but we are strongly considering switching to gradle for builds.

Awesome, thanks.
