Installation - 'Lite' Version - With Maven
=========================
Building the 'lite' version of the Java Protocol Buffers library is
the same as building the full version, except that all commands are
run using the 'lite' profile. (see
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html)
E.g. to install the lite version of the jar, you would run:
$ mvn install -P lite
The resulting artifact has the 'lite' classifier. To reference it
for dependency resolution, you would specify it as:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.protobuf</groupId>
<artifactId>protobuf-java</artifactId>
<version>${version}</version>
<classifier>lite</classifier>
</dependency>
