Hello.
Is there some framework in place in order to generate executable
files
from the Java sources located there?
I guess that a configuration snippet could be added in the
"pom.xml"[1]
so that one of the build phases can also compile (and perhaps also
run)
the example applications.

[1] I tried to use the "pom.xml" located in "src/userguide" but it
"failed
to resolve artefact"
org.apache.commons:commons-math3:jar:3.3-SNAPSHOT.
You need to install the [math] snapshot locally for maven to be
able
to resolve it. Run "mvn install" to get a current snapshot
installed locally.
OK. That's easy enough for me at the moment.
[I just wanted to check that what I put under "src/userguide/java"
does compile and run.]
However, I wonder why it is deemed better to have another "pom.xml"
rather than have the main one generate the "examples" JAR.
Why exactly would one want to generate the "examples" jar? I get the
use case for us of wanting to make sure they build, but for people
wanting to use them as reference it would seem a self-contained build
might be a little easier to work with. Setting it up the way it is
now also makes it easy to test against prior releases. Also, the self
contained build is faster.
People may want to _run_ the examples, without the requirement to have
maven installed.
