[seam-dev] Re: lab notes for experimenting with Seam 3

If you've been watching in on the conversations and are interested in experimenting with Seam 3, I've prepared a concise set of instructions for getting started. Keep in mind that Seam 3 is in the very early stages, so put on your lab glasses ;) Begin by installing/extracting JBoss AS 5. Set JBOSS_HOME to point to this installation. Now, checkout and build! Open a shell and switch to your development directory. (Committers note that you can change the repository URLs to https://svn.jboss.org...) mkdir webbeans-trunk cd webbeans-trunk svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/webbeans/ri/trunk ri svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/webbeans-ri-int/trunkri-int svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/webbeans/extensions/trunk extensions cd ri mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true cd ../ri-int mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true cd ../extensions/logger mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true cd ../../ri/jboss-as PAUSE -> create file local.build.properties and populate with: jboss.home=<<same as JBOSS_HOME>> webbeans-ri-int.version=5.2.0-SNAPSHOT webbeans.version=1.0.0-SNAPSHOT ant update cd ../../.. mkdir seam-trunk cd seam-trunk svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/seam/modules/trunk modules cd modules/parent mvn install cd ../jsf-upgrade-tool/ mvn cd ../.. svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/seam/examples/trunk examples cd examples/booking mvn cli:execute-phase > explode Start JBoss and visit http://localhost:8080/seam-booking/ I welcome all feedback and patches.
