To get started, ensure you have the latest JDK installed, and download Maven from:
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
http://maven.apache.org/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then run "mvn clean package" to compile the software. You can also run "mvn site:site" to generate a website with
|
|
|
|
|
useful information like JavaDocs. The outputs are under the target/ directory.

Alternatively, just import the project using your IDE. IntelliJ has Maven integration once you tell it where to
|
|
|
|
|
find your unzipped Maven install directory.

Now try running one of the example apps:

|
|
|
|
2012-05-31 08:26:07 +00:00
|
|
|
cd examples
|
2013-07-30 11:14:24 +00:00
|
|
|
mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.google.bitcoin.examples.ForwardingService <insert a bitcoin address here>

It will download the block chain and eventually print a Bitcoin address. If you send coins to it,
|
2013-07-30 11:14:24 +00:00
|
|
|
it will forward them on to the address you specified.
