Misc Java stuff

Some sub-projects require launch4j, which in turn needs 32bit libraries on Linux. On Debian-like systems (like Ubuntu), that boils down to thegcc-multilib package. Also, if there is an error involving not finding jni.h, it's likely that JAVA_HOME is not set properly.

All modules are licensed under the Apache License v2.0 by default. However, there are some exceptions to some modules. Those modules have their own LICENSE file(s).

Open an ISSUE here on github if you want me to push updates to maven central.

This repository consists of a lot of smaller, separate sub-projects, each of which gets released independently and therefore has its own 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, etc. version sequence numbering.

The maven release plugin has issues with releasing subfolders of git repositories. Workaround:

# release plugin's pushChanges option is set to false!
cd <project's sub-folder>
mvn release:prepare
git push --all
git push --tags
# now fix scm.url in release.properties manually! then run:
mvn release:perform

When the last step hangs (happends often after the first 4 files have been uploaded), interrupt it and
restart with "mvn clean && mvn release:perform".

## Build Site Archive

In the root directory (`misc-aggregator` project) do:

mvn clean install site mvn clean install -Psite-archive -N
