Configuring maven
Refer to maven installation at http://maven.apache.org/download.html#Installation
Really we'll use maven in operating system console only for some special operations like installing external libraries.
In GNU Linux Ubuntu for example you could be good adding it in .bashrc
export PATH=$PATH:/home/jllort/software/apache-maven-2.2.1/bin
Configuring java to eclipse
Go to Window / Preferences / Java / Installed JRE. You must have JDK 1.6 defined here.
Checkout OpenKM from svn
Go to File / New / Other and select Maven / Checkout Maven Projects from SCM
Select the svn type and typewrite the url https://openkm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openkm/branches/4.0/openkm to refer version 4.0.
Be patient, first time you downloading OpenKM from svn, you're downloading all libraries to your maven repository. It could need some hours depending your Internet connection.
After OpenKM it'll be donwloaded, automatically it'll be compiled
Installing external libraries to maven repository
Open a operating system console. Go to your OpenKM project path. Go into ext-libs and execute install.sh ( Windows users simply open this file with text editor and execute the command )
