Building Apache Geode

Apache Geode 1.0.0 M1 has been successfully built and tested for Linux on z Systems. The following instructions can be used for RHEL 7.1, SLES 12 SP1 and Ubuntu 16.04.

General Notes:
i) When following the steps below please use a standard permission user unless otherwise specified.

ii) A directory /<source_root>/ will be referred to in these instructions, this is a temporary writable directory anywhere you'd like to place it.

Step 1: Install the Dependencies

For RHEL7.1:

sudo yum install -y git which java-1.8.0-openjdk.s390x java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel.s390x

For SLES12-SP1:

sudo zypper install -y git which java-1_8_0-openjdk java-1_8_0-openjdk-devel

For Ubuntu 16.04:

sudo apt-get install -y git openjdk-8-jdk

Step 2: Set Environment Variables

For RHEL7.1:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"
export _JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx2048m
export JVM_ARGS="-Xms2048m -Xmx2048m"

For SLES12-SP1:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib64/jvm/java
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"
export _JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx2048m
export JVM_ARGS="-Xms2048m -Xmx2048m"

For Ubuntu 16.04:

export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"
export _JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx2048m

Step 3: Build and install Apache Geode

  1. Get the source 
    
   cd /<source_root>/
   git clone https://github.com/apache/incubator-geode.git
   cd /<source_root>/incubator-geode/
   git checkout rel/v1.0.0-incubating.M1

```
  1. Change gemfire-core/build.gradle to include snappy-java-1.1.2.jar:
```
	vi /<source_root>/incubator-geode/gemfire-core/build.gradle
```
In the dependencies section, change the snappy-java entry as follows:

```
	dependencies {
	....
		compile 'org.xerial.snappy:snappy-java:1.1.2'
	}
```
  1. Build Apache Geode source without test cases
    ``` ./gradlew build installDist -x test

4. Run test cases(Optional)  
  ```
  	./gradlew test

Above command may result into few test case failures related to Snappy java compression on s390x architecture. Those can be ignored.
