Grizzly is built, assembled and installed using Maven. Grizzly is deployed to the Maven Central repository. Binary, source, javadoc, and sample JARS can all be found there.
An application depending on Grizzly requires that it in turn includes the set of jars that Grizzly depends on. Grizzly has a pluggable component architecture so the set of jars required to be include in the class path can be different for each application.
All Grizzly components are built using Java SE 6 compiler. It means, you will also need at least Java SE 6 to be able to compile and run your application.
Developers using maven are likely to find it easier to include and manage dependencies of their applications than developers using ant or other build technologies. This document will explain to both maven and non-maven developers how to depend on Jersey for their application. Ant developers are likely to find the Ant Tasks for Maven very useful.
If you’re not using maven, you can download the JARs you need for your project from maven central.
Please note
The contribution to Eclipse Foundation begins with Eclipse Grizzly is 2.4.4 and higher versions.
Older versions of Grizzly are available under the former GlassFish project and under legacy licensing terms Legacy Grizzly. (2.2.x, 1.9.x, 1.0.x) are still available and can be found on Maven Central.
