# sbt 0.10

This is the 0.10.x series of sbt.  See [Setup] for getting started with the latest binary release or see below to build from source.

The previous stable release of sbt was 0.7.7, which was hosted on [Google Code].

There is a [video of a demo] given at the [Northeast Scala Symposium] that gives a brief introduction to the concepts in sbt 0.9 and later.  Note that the demo was based on 0.9.0 and things have changed since then.  See the [documentation] for current information.

# Build from source

1. Install the current stable binary release of sbt 0.10.x (see [Setup]), which will be used to build sbt from source.
2. Get the source code.

	$ git clone git://github.com/harrah/xsbt.git
	$ cd xsbt

3. The initial branch is the development branch 0.10, which contains the latest code for the 0.10.x series.  To build a specific release or commit, switch to the associated tag.  The tag for the latest 0.10.x release is v0.10.1:

	$ git checkout v0.10.1

4. To build the launcher, publish all components locally, and build API and SXR documentation:

	$ sbt build-all

Alternatively, the individual commands run by `build-all` may be executed directly:

	$ sbt publish-local proguard sxr doc

5. To use this locally built version of sbt, copy your stable ~/bin/sbt script to ~/bin/xsbt and change it to use the launcher jar in `<xsbt>/target/`.  For the v0.10.1 tag, the full location is:

	<xsbt>/target/sbt-launch-0.10.1.jar

If using the 0.10 development branch, the launcher is at:

	<xsbt>/target/sbt-launch-0.10.2-SNAPSHOT.jar

## Modifying sbt

When developing sbt itself, there is no need to run `build-all`, since this generates documentation as well.  For the fastest turnaround time for checking compilation only, run `compile`.

To use your modified version of sbt in a project locally, run `publish-local`.  If you have modified the launcher, also run `proguard`.

After each `publish-local`, clean the `project/boot/` directory in the project in which you want to use the locally built sbt.  Alternatively, if sbt is running and the launcher hasn't changed, run `reboot full` to have sbt do this for you.

If a project has `project/build.properties` defined, either delete the file or change `sbt.version` to `0.10.2-SNAPSHOT`.
