# Acegi Security Downloads

If you wish to try out this project, you are probably looking for the acegi-security-xx.zip file, which contains all of the officially released JARs, a copy of all documentation, and one WAR artifact from the Contacts Sample application.

Please note that in order to reduce download size, we only include in the release ZIP one of the WAR artifacts produced by the Contacts Sample application. The WAR artifact we include is suitable for standalone deployment (specifically, it does not require a CAS server or container adapter setup). The official release ZIP therefore probably contains what you need, especially if you're initially evaluating the project. If you wish to deploy the other WAR artifacts produced by the Contacts Sample application (ie those that target CAS and container adapters), you will need to build Acegi Security from source.

The acegi-security-xx-src.zip is intended to use with IDEs. It does not contain the files needed to compile Acegi Security. It also does not contain the sources to the sample applications. If you need any of these files, please download from CVS.

## Official Releases

The official release ZIP files are available from the Sourceforge File Release System.

## Maven Dependencies

The Acegi Security JARs are also available via the iBiblio Maven Repository.
