creating a build

make sure you have a working nodeMirror
make sure you have java installed
go into the build directory

cd build

start the build script
./build.sh

the script will create a new directory called "release" and create the following structure:
release
+server
+client
+nodeMirror

the server directory contains the server dojo build.
the client directory contains the client dojo build.

to ensure the build was successful you can simply start nodeMirror from within the newly created nodeMirror directory.
if anything went wrong you might not get a working application.
to check weather server build or client build failed you can have a look at the dojo/dojo.js files. if it contains only a comment the build faild.
you must then inspect the build protocol file in the root of the according directory.

its very common that a build from a freshly cloned repository will fail. this is because i update the build script only when i am doing a build myself.
ongoing development may make a build fail, incomplete or not working at all.
in that case create an issue or take one of the releases because the releases should always include buildable code.

have fun!
