Src jar for Pentaho Kettle

Question

Where can I find a src-jar for Kettle? I'm looking for a jar that contains the Java files, and I can point my IDE to (like for example junit-4.6-src.jar).

Answer 1

You can download source zip files from the project web site . Then you just need to repackage it into a jar file.

It's pretty easy, in fact:

jar cvf src.jar -C src .
jar uvf src.jar -C src-core .
jar uvf src.jar -C src-db .
jar uvf src.jar -C src-ui .

(Doing it all in one go fails due to duplicate entries.)
