AD authentication java class for Fitnesse

Question

How can I create ldap-authentation-${version}.jar file described here?

https://github.com/timander/fitnesse-ldap-authenticator

I am so lost.

I am trying to enable Active Directory authentication for Fitnesse test.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Ali

Ok Tim I attempted it and now I am running in some issues. First build failure issue was solved after changing the version in pom.xml from 20100303 to 20131110. Now the second build is failing because of this:
"

Ok, I made some progress and this is what I am getting now:

I assumed knowledge of Git and Maven when I created the FitNesse LDAP Authenticator. To build a jar file:

1. Use Git to check out the code
2. Run Maven to create a jar file (mvn package)
3. The jar will be in the target directory where you checked out the code
