Prerequisites

For all the next instructions, we assume that you downloaded and installed Maven.

To download packages from the source repository, you need to download and install Subversion.

If you want to build something including JavaDocs (assemblies, sites and JavaDoc report itself) you need to install GraphViz, otherwise you will notice missing pictures inside JavaDocs pages.

Building main packages
