Build Cryptomator from source github

[1nvader]

hello,

I want to build for cryptomator for windows. I have only little java experience, I'm into other languages. I also speak german, I wrote this post yesterday and I do not want to type it again in german, I hope you forgive me .

source: https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator

I've installed jdk and jre and maven3, but I don't know what do to with that:
- JCE unlimited strength policy files (needed for 256-bit keys)
- Optional: OS-dependent build tools for native packaging (see Windows, OS X, Linux)

I tried to do that without doing something with jce and OS-dependent build tools:

cd main
mvn clean install -Prelease

Everything is successfull but I do not get a .exe like when I install it with the prebuilt version from the cryptomator website. I would need a detailed tutorial, since I'm not so familiar with java.

thank you!

Java cryptography is restricted by default. To use unrestricted cryptography you need to import the Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files into your JRE (<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/security). You can download the files from the Oracle website: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce8-download-2133166.html

Just unzip the archive and copy the files. There are already files with the same name there, so the new ones will replace them.

Cheers,
Andy
