This file explains how to build the jaxm sources.


Required software to build JAXM/SAAJ 1.1 API module
----------------------------------------------

To be able to build JAXM/SAAJ 1.1 you need to have the following
software:

1. Apache Ant 1.4.1 or higher can be downloaded from 
   http://jakarta.apache.org/ant

2. Servlet 2.2 or higher APIs can be downloaded from 
   http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat

3. Java Beans Activation Framework can be downloaded from
   http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/glasgow/jaf.html

4. JAXP 1.2 can be downloaded from
   http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp

The following steps need to be carried to successfully build JAXM/SAAJ
1.1 API:

1. Modify the build.xml to point to the appropriate location for all the above 
   required jar files.

2. Go into the directory where you have downloaded the JAXM/SAAJ 1.1
   API sources and run the following command:

	       ant[.bat] dist

This should create a "build" directory. After the command has
completed JAXM/SAAJ 1.1 API should be built in the build directory.

The jar files that are built from the sources are as follows:

in the "build" directory there is 

    jaxm-api.jar which contains the APIs for JAXM 1.1
    saaj-api.jar which contains the APIs for SAAJ 1.1
    jaxm-apidocs.war which is a web application containing 
          all the javadocs for JAXM/SAAJ 1.1

In the docs directory resides all the documentation including the javadocs for
the JAXM API.
