Setup ODFDOM build environment

To establish your own ODFDOM build environment:

1.) Install Java / JDK 5

2.) Install NetBeans 6.1

3.) Install Mercurial 1.x

   Setup Mercurial
   Windows: <Hg Install Dir>\Mercurial.ini or Unix: <Hg Install Dir>/.hgrc
   [ui]
   username = foo@bar.com

4.) Get ODFDOM

Unpack the ODFDOM source bundle and start Netbeans. Open an existing project in Netbeans and choose the unpacked ODFDOM directory. As the ODFDOM source bundle comes together with Netbeans project files, ODFDOM opens as a preconfigured project. You still got the opportunity to work solely with ANT directly on the command line instead having the IDE GUI comfort provided by Netbeans.

Mercurial is being used as distributed revision control. Since Netbeans 6.1 the Mercurial plugin is part of the IDE, which help you to track the changes being made and ease providing patches.

In case you are new to Netbeans, there are several nice Netbeans tutorials available.
