Purpose
-------

This directory is for source code that you wish to compile into your
JIRA Standalone distribution. For instance, it can be used to:

 - modify the Bugzilla or Mantis importer source:

http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest/bugzilla_import.html
http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest/mantis_import.html

 - customize/write a service to work with JIRA:

http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest/services.html

 - Create or edit a JIRA plugin:

http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest/

People making substantial modifications should rather build JIRA from
source
(http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest/building.html). The
plugin development kit
(http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAEXT/JIRA+Plugin+Development+Kit)
should be preferred for serious plugin developers.


Instructions
------------

 - Download Apache Ant from http://ant.apache.org
 - Copy source into a src/ subdirectory
 - Copy resources into the etc/ subdirectory
 - Copy libraries into the lib/ directory
 - Run 'ant'. Files will be compiled and copied into the main webapp
   (../atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/)


To get Standalone to automatically reload these files, edit
../conf/server.xml, and set reloadable="true".
