## How to integrate Castor with Maven

## Releases

Starting with Castor 1.0.4, the Castor team has started to make selected build artifacts of Castor available at the Codehaus Maven 2 repository.

To include a specific Castor release artifact in your Maven 2 project(s), please add one of the following Maven 2 dependencies as outlined further below to your project POM (replacing 1.0.4 with the desired release number).

    <dependency>
       <groupId>org.codehaus.castor</groupId>
       <artifactId>castor-xml</artifactId>
       <version>1.0.4</version>
    </dependency>

and make sure you include the Codehaus Maven repository in your POM (if you happen to be an early adaptor) similar to ...

    <repository>
        <id>codehaus</id>
        <name>Maven Codehaus repository</name>
        <url>http://repository.codehaus.org/</url>
    </repository>

Once a specific Castor release has been propagated to the main Maven 2 repository at ibiblio (usually within 48 hours), adding just the dependency will be sufficient.

## Snapshot releases

As we are working towards new releases, we will try to make snapshot releases available as we make progress with existing/newly created Jira issues. Please consult with the relevant release section at the roadmap to get an idea what's been fixed as part of a (planned) release.

As usual, please report any issues with these Maven 2 (snapshot) releases through Jira.

## Available release artifacts

The following table summarizes the build artifacts currently available through the Codehaus Maven 2 repository.
