Abstract

Many large-scale Java empirical studies require not only source code but also resulting binaries such as JAR files. Pre-compiled datasets quickly become obsolete, and the creation of a custom corpus for every study is tedious. We present a prototype of JaMaBuild, a tool and a framework for mass building of Java projects from source. Given a list of projects and optional settings, it downloads the projects, filters them by user-definable criteria, builds them using Maven or Gradle, and collects outputs such as JAR files and build logs. Our tool can also be used for local build breakage studies.
