Hey Richard, Thanks for the info. I will give that a try. Currently the one way I got it to build was adding some of the dependencies into the poms of the respective hdfs/hadoop submodules.
The dependencies were already defined in the dependency management section of the parent storm pom and adding them into the submodule poms while still using the version from the parent work. I will try what you suggest too. Would rather not have to have changed the poms.
