* Using MPXJ Library
* Spring MVC - REST
* mvn clean package
under jetty configuration, we can add our OAUTH_CLIENT_KEY and OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET into the system properties (see pom.xml -- jetty plugin configuration).
By default the application will look into system environment variable if those environment cannot be found then it will look into system properties. This is usefull for development purposes without having to setup the OS environment variables
* mvn jetty:run
OR
* java -jar target/dependency/jetty-runner.jar target/mppconverter.war
* heroku login
__setup a new instance for this java app__
* heroku create
* heroku config:add OAUTH_CLIENT_KEY=<sfdc customer key>
heroku config:add OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET=<sfdc customer secret>
* git push heroku master
