Assumptions
This integration guide is based on the AppFuse QuickStart guide, using a Spring Modular project. It's assumed that you will create an AppFuse project called "myproject" with some package "com.mycompany". It's also assumed that you've followed the AppFuse QuickStart guide and are running MySQL already.
This will work for an AppFuse Spring Modular project archetype. This has been itegrated in strust project but the included files should be easily adaptable based on your requirements for any archy type if you can collect the basic integration idea. It's assumed that you've just created a new project using Maven, and haven't edited or modified any of the base files. (If you've already started developing your Spring Modular project, check everything into a source control management system to manage changes with this feature.
It's a good idea to check all of your files into source control before unzipping appfuse-captcha-2.0-M4.zip into your project so you can see what files changed, and how they changed. A list of files modified and added can be found below.
