Using Maven in Ubuntu 10.04 to download CSPoker

[Sam]

Maven is properly installed as well as the JDK1.6.0_21.
I invoked a local terminal and typed "mvn compile" and I got the
following:

sam@sam-laptop:~$ mvn compile

I must be doing something wrong or misinterpreted the instructions in
some way.
Please advise.

Sam,

sam@sam-laptop:~$ mvn compile

You're running mvn from your home directory. You need to run it from the cspoker root directory.

 

This is why mvn complains that there is no pom.xml file in the directory:

Ok, I ran mvn compile in the directory that contains the source I
downloaded using Subversion.
There were occasional timeouts and failures to load resources.
When I perused the source directory, the swt .java files are still
missing.

Maven sometimes reports that it failed to download a dependency from a repository and then goes on to download it from another repository. This is not a problem.

The dependencies are jar files that are downloaded into your local maven repository, probably "~/.m2/...". They are not supposed to show up in the cspoker source tree and certainly not as .java files.

Use m2eclipse to import the existing maven project.
