Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-6671: ------------------------------------------ My initial thoughts is that every time someone tinkers with either ivy or maven or the build process in general, it always seems to get worse and worse for those of us that build on non-Internet connected machines. This sounds like another movement towards more pain. > To use maven for hadoop common builds > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6671 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6671 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: build > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Giridharan Kesavan > > We are now able to publish hadoop artifacts to the maven repo successfully [ > Hadoop-6382] > Drawbacks with the current approach: > * Use ivy for dependency management with ivy.xml > * Use maven-ant-task for artifact publishing to the maven repository > * pom files are not generated dynamically > To address this I propose we use maven to build hadoop-common, which would > help us to manage dependencies, publish artifacts and have one single xml > file(POM) for dependency management and artifact publishing. > I would like to have a branch created to work on mavenizing hadoop common. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
