[xwiki-devs] help for building

[Paul Libbrecht]

thanks Cristian,

had forgotten about profiles (which also seem to be about  
applications...).
In any case... now I see my mvn build throws a lot of exceptions (not  
fatal errors) because it could not connect to the DB which, indeed, I  
had not configured.

Is that needed or ignoreable ? And if yes, where ? (ideally somewhere  
in ~/build.properties or so?).
Should that DB be the "production DB" (I guess not!).
Just a build-scratch? Something in the middle?

thanks again

paul
