Hi,
I would like to modify the LanguageTool source code for using within my Java app. I am an expert Java developer but I know nothing about Maven. I don’t know how to download or install the “Maven artifact” described on this page: http://languagetool.org/java-api/
Are there detailed instructions anywhere for installing and building LanguageTool from source? (Preferably with Eclipse.)
Thanks in advance,
Barry Fruitman

Here’s a short introduction to Maven:
http://maven.apache.org/run-maven/
Note that in LT 2.0 there’s only one Maven artifact (*.jar) that contains
everything, in the future there will be more, e.g. one *.jar per language.
You’d need to set up LT 2.0 manually in Eclipse as it doesn’t come with a
Maven pom (we have just switched to Maven).
A short introduction on how to build the current SVN is at
http://www.languagetool.org/development/#checkout

Hi Daniel,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

I don’t understand… I found a pom.xml in the root svn folder and another in every project root folder. Can I use those to build LanguageTool? (creating my own Maven setup is not really an option as I don’t know anything about Maven).
Thanks again,
Barry

Yes, just call “mvn package” in the top directory with a pom.xml (Maven
needs to be installed for that, there’s no way around that if you want to
compile LT).
If there’s a pom.xml it means you’re using the latest SVN, not LT 2.0.

I can build it now. Thank you very much!
