The project definition, its dependencies and other build configs are defined in a file in its root folder named *@pom.xml@*. This file is used by *_Apache Maven_* (http://maven.apache.org/) to build the project. Apache Maven is de facto Java buid management tools that decouple your project structure from IDEs. On the other hand, it's so popular that all Java IDEs have developed plugins to integrate and interpret Maven projects into their expected structures. Another benefit of build tools like Maven is that the project can be build automatically using Continuous Integration servers, like _Jenkins/Hudson_ in our case.
