Building cac-agent

Setup

To build cac-agent, you must have JDK8 and JDK11 available for compiling. This allows cac-agent to carry libraries that work with both runtime environments.

The version of java and javac in your default path can be any version 8 or greater.

Using maven tool chains to define required jdk locations

You can specify the paths to JDK8 and JDK11 via ~/.m2/toolchains.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF8"?>
<toolchains>
	<toolchain>
		<type>jdk</type>
		<provides>
			<version>8</version>
			<vendor>openjdk</vendor>
		</provides>
		<configuration>
			<jdkHome>/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/</jdkHome>
		</configuration>
	</toolchain>
	<toolchain>
		<type>jdk</type>
		<provides>
			<version>11</version>
			<vendor>openjdk</vendor>
		</provides>
		<configuration>
			<jdkHome>/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/</jdkHome>
		</configuration>
	</toolchain>
</toolchains>

Building

Compiling is a simple Maven command:

mvn clean install
