Building KIELER without Eclipse

If you want to build a KIELER product or the KiCo command line tool, you will need to use maven to build the project.

Requirements

• Java 17
• Maven
• Python 2.7

Python 2.7 is only required for building the CLI. Must be available as python command, check conflicts with Python 3

Commands

Commands should run from the semantics root directory.

If Java 17 is not your default java command, prepend the following command (Linux) to set the java version: JAVA\_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64/ Hence it may look like: JAVA\_HOME=/your/path/to/java mvn -f build/pom

It is recommended to add -T 2 as a parameter to the following commands to speed up the build. However, it might be not helpful in some situations as the build log will be scrambled due to the parallel build threads.

Command	Effect
mvn -f build/pom.xml clean validate -P semantics.all	Builds all plugins and CLI and rund tests (including CLI tests). CLI tools are located in build/de.cau.cs.kieler.kicool.cli/target/exe or sccharts.cli respectively.
mvn -f build/pom.xml clean package -P semantics.ls	Build only the language server.
mvn -f build/pom.xml package -P semantics.product	Builds the Kieler product and CLI.
