<h2>Portability</h2>
<p>
This database is written in Java and therefore works on many platforms.
It can also be compiled to a native executable using GCJ.
</p>
<br /><a name="environment"></a>
<h2>Environment</h2>
<p>
A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.4 or higher is required to run this database.
</p>
<p>
To build the database executables, the following software stack was used.
Newer version or compatible software works too.
</p>
<ul>
<li>Windows XP
</li><li>Sun JDK Version 1.4
</li><li>Apache Ant Version 1.6.5
</li><li>Mozilla Firefox 1.5
</li><li>Eclipse Version 3.2.2
</li><li>YourKit Java Profiler
</li></ul>
<br /><a name="building"></a>
<h2>Building the Software</h2>
<p>
On the command line, go to the directory src and execute the following command:
<pre>
ant -projecthelp
</pre>
You will get a list of targets. If you want to build the jar files, execute:
<pre>
ant jar
</pre>
To create a jar file with the JDBC API and the classes required to connect to a server only,
use the target jarClient:
<pre>
ant jarClient
</pre>
The other targets may be used as well.
</p>
<br /><a name="maven2"></a>
<h2>Using Maven 2</h2>
<h3>Using a Central Repository</h3>
<p>
You can include the database in your Maven 2 project as a dependency.
Example:
</p>
<pre>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.h2database</groupId>
<artifactId>h2</artifactId>
<version>1.0.65</version>
</dependency>
</pre>
<p>
New versions of this database are first uploaded to http://hsql.sourceforge.net/m2-repo/ and then automatically
synchronized with the main maven repository; however after a new release it may take a few hours before
they are available there.
</p>
<h3>Using Snapshot Version</h3>
<p>
To build a 'snapshot' H2 .jar file and upload it the to the local Maven 2 repository, execute the following command:
<pre>
ant mavenInstallLocal
</pre>
Afterwards, you can include the database in your Maven 2 project as a dependency:
<pre>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.h2database</groupId>
<artifactId>h2</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
</pre>
</p>
<br /><a name="translating"></a>
<h2>Translating</h2>
<p>
The translation of this software is split into the following parts:
</p>
<ul>
<li>H2 Console: src/main/org/h2/server/web/res/_text_*.properties
</li><li>Error messages: src/main/org/h2/res/_messages_*.properties
</li><li>Web site: src/docsrc/text/_docs_*.utf8.txt
</li></ul>
<p>
The conversion between UTF-8 and Java encoding (using the \u syntax), as well as the HTML entities (&#..;)
is automated by running the tool PropertiesToUTF8. The web site translation is automated as well,
using <code>ant docs</code>.
