jameslordhz, While I don't entirely support some of my colleagues sharp choices of words, I completely agree with their net sentiment. We don't design software to minimize to number of IDE projects. If you look at, say, Apache CXF, it has dozens. We design it to have a sensible, maintainable, modularity. In a dependency-management environment like OSGi or Maven, there's a special value in small modules, as it allows fine control.
Your comparison to hadoop seems ironic to me. I've just spend some time fighting with classpath issues in hadoop jobs, and I reached the conclusion that hadoop desperately needs something like OSGi or Guice to control the chaos. In any case, and with all due respect, this project is not going to do major rearrangement of the furniture based on email from someone who has, so far, made no other contribution to the project. So I think that this thread is pretty much done. If you'd like to join the development community, there are plenty of resources out there describing what's to be done and how to approach it. --benson margulies On Thu, Jun 30, 2011 at 4:22 PM, Hervé BOUTEMY <[email protected]> wrote: > FYI, here is the dependency tree: [1] > > in Mavn 2, the dependency tree [2] was more complex: one of the objectives of > Maven 3 was to simplify it to match the good level of modularity > > Regards, > > Hervé > > > [1] http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.3/ > > [2] http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.1/ > > Le jeudi 30 juin 2011, jameslordhz a écrit : >> Maybe you are right,but large project as hadoop have far less ecipse >> projects compared with maven, is that necessary to have eleven eclipse >> projects? why not 5 or less? >> >> >> 2011-06-30 >> >> >> >> jameslordhz >> >> >> >> 发件人： Mark Struberg >> 发送时间： 2011-06-30 14:59:10 >> 收件人： Maven Developers List >> 抄送： >> 主题： Re: Re: why Maven 3 is divided into eleven eclipse project? >> >> why is the linux shell not merged into one but instead are ls and tree and >> stuff separate programs?
