How to build Jimm from sources
English
РусскийHow to build.
Jimm uses Apache Ant for building. You can download Apache Ant from http://ant.apache.org/. Follow the instructions in the Apache Ant manual to install it.
You also must have a Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) SDK. Depending on the selected target you also need the following:
- DEFAULT
- MIDP2 and MOTOROLA:
- RIM
- SIEMENS:
By default, class files are obfuscated using ProGuard to reduce bytecode size. You can download ProGuard from http://proguard.sourceforge.net. Follow the instructions in the ProGuard manual how to install it. Jimm requires ProGuard 4.2 or later. To get a reliable version it is suggested to use version 4.2 and not the latest available version.
If you want to build the Jimm release archive with the build.xml script provided
in the util/build-release folder you also need the 7z (http://www.7-zip.org/)
program in the path of the console you run ant in.
Also for release only you need svnant which you can obtain at http://subclipse.tigris.org/svnant.html, follow the installation instructions and make sure the .jar files are on your PATH.
To build binaries for RIM Blackberry devices you need to have Antenna and the
BlackBerry JDE Component Package installed on your system and configured via the
build.xml script. You can download Antenna from
http://antenna.sourceforge.net and the BlackBerry JDE Component Package from
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/downloads/.
At first, open the Apache Ant buildfile build.xml and change the properties in
the configuration/customization section. You can use both the slash and the
backslash for separating path components.
To build Jimm, just type ant or ant dist. To disable class file obfuscation,
add -Dskip-obfuscate=1 to the before mentioned command. If everything goes
well, look at the newly created directory dist/bin for Jimm.jar and Jimm.jad
files.
To clean the distribution, type ant clean.
