Paul Smith commented on HBASE-2099: ----------------------------------- bq. [WARNING] NOTE: Currently, inclusion of module dependencies may produce unpredictable results if a version conflict occurs. Ok, I had read up about that exact warning earlier in the week. It is related to the fact that one has to have the 'assembly:assembly' text during a full distribution, that is, to get the full tar ball, you have to invoke the assembly plugin's goal. This is because I have configured this assembly in the top-level pom. Apparently this is 'not the preferred way'. Instead, a new sub-module should be created to host this. Basically shift the definition into a, say, 'dist' sub-module. I'd like to experiment with this after it's in trunk and I can use git more effectively to publish potential changes for review (if Ryan is ok with me using his github repo, otherwise I could create my own I guess) I think my patch contains 'just enough' to get started, but not enough for an official release (a few other reasons it's not ready yet anyway). bq. INFO] contrib/transactional/hbase-contrib-transactional-0.20.2-SNAPSHOT.jar already added, skipping to be honest, no idea. Seems benign though. maybe an errant INFO level log message (perhaps should be DEBUG..). Can follow up with maven-user list if it's annoying. bq. [WARNING] Entry: hbase-0.20.2-SNAPSHOT/core/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/regionserver/TestDeleteCompare.java longer than 100 characters. The 'official' tar spec does not support filenames > 100 chars. In practice, the tar ball works fine. I've seen this plenty of times during our own Aconex builds and not a single server has yet failed to unpack it. It's perhaps targetted to warn for _really_ old or esoteric Unix distributions. May even be able to turn it off via config, not sure yet. bq. Oh, and how do I build the package? I can't. I have to go back to my mvn checkout, is that right? i have no idea what you mean here... sorry. > Move build to Maven > ------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2099 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2099 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: stack > Attachments: findbugs.html, findbugs.html, HBase Move Script.txt, > HBASE-2099.13.patch, HBASE-2099.14.patch, mvn.out, test-reports.zip > > > This issue is for discussing pros and cons of moving hbase build to Apache > Maven. > Maven, if you take on its paradigm, does a lot for you.
