WSO2 invites you to contribute by checking out the source from the Subversion (SVN) source control system, building the product and making changes, and then committing your changes back to the source repository. (For more information on Subversion, see http://svnbook.red-bean.com.) The following sections describe this process:

Setting up your development environment
Before you edit the source code in your IDE, set up your development environment by running one of the following commands:
| If you are using this IDE... | Run this command... | Additional information |
|---|---|---|
| Eclipse | mvn eclipse:eclipse | http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin |
| IntelliJ IDEA | mvn idea:idea | http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-idea-plugin |
If you are using a later Eclipse version and if you get errors (library path etc.) when trying to import the source code using the Exisiting Projects into Workspace, follow the steps below to solve them by importing the source code as a Maven project.
- Build the source using the command:
mvn clean install - Open Eclipse and click Import in the File menu and then click Exisiting Maven Projects as shown below:

- Install Maven and JDK. See Installation Prerequisites for compatible versions.
- Set the environment variable
MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx4096m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m" to avoid the MavenOutOfMemoryError. Navigate to each folder representing the patches within the
<local-platform-directory-1>and run the following Apache Maven commands to build the patches. For information on the patches, which are applicable for the respective Carbon chunk release, go to Release Matrix.This command...

This can be done only if you've already built the source at least once. To create complete release artifacts of the products released with this chunk version, including the binary and source distributions, go to
<local-platform-directory-2>/repos/wso2/carbon/platform/tags/<WSO2-Carbon-version>/products/ directoryand run the Apache Maven commands stated in the above step. To build only a selected product/s, open<local-platform-directory-2>/repos/wso2/carbon/platform/tags/<WSO2-Carbon-version>/products/pom.xmlfile, and comment out the products you do not want to build and run the relevant Maven command.
