Checkout and Build Overture
Clone the main Overture repository (overture):
git clone https://github.com/overturetool/overture.git <target directory>
The development branch should already be checked out after you clone. In case it isn't, you can switch to it with:
git checkout development
Finally, initialize all submodules:
git submodule update --init
The build system used is Maven and requires version 3.x.
To build the core binaries, type the following command from the project root:
mvn install
To build the IDE binaries, type:
mvn install -PWith-IDE
or
cd ide
mvn install
After the build process runs, you can find the executables in ide/product/target/products/.
By default, Maven will only build the binaries for whatever platform you are currently on (Windows, Linux or MacOS). If you want to build the binaries for all three platforms, use the following command:
mvn install -PWith-IDE -Pall-platforms
Overture is built using Java 7. Technically, you can build with Java 8 but this will cause test failures when building the Combinatorial Testing module. As long as you are aware of what you're doing, you can skip tests and Overture will install successfully.
mvn -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true install
mvn -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Dmaven.test.skip=true install -PWith-IDE
