Hemanth Yamijala commented on HADOOP-6800: ------------------------------------------ Tom, trying to see if I can review this, but I'm not very familiar with Ivy... Is the goal of this jira to make sure that the versions for libraries we are using in the 3 projects are the same ? I ask because there are a few libraries with different versions in the common and mapreduce projects. For e.g. commons-logging is 1.1.1 in common and 1.0.4 in mapred, and jets3t is 0.7.1 in common and 0.6.1 in mapred. These don't seem to be excluded / modified in your patch. Would these need to be fixed too ? Apologies if my understanding is completely wrong... > Harmonize JAR library versions > ------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-6800 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6800 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Tom White > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-6800.patch, HADOOP-6800.patch > > > Currently, multiple versions of the same library JAR are being pulled in for > various reasons. > * Within the same project, multiple versions of the same JAR are pulled in. > E.g. Avro (used by Common) depends on Commons Lang 2.5 while Common depends > on Commons Lang 2.4. > * Dependent subprojects use different versions. E.g. Common depends on Avro > 1.3.2 while MapReduce depends on 1.3.0. Since MapReduce depends on Common, > this has the potential to cause a problem at runtime. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
