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.

> 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.  There are also a 
> bunch of nice plugins that do nice reports on state of project; findbugs, 
> that nice plugin where you can give out urls that will resolve to lines in 
> source code (a doxygen-like thing ... I've forgotten its name).  Other 
> examples are a docbook plugin that would do the build inline with doc build.  
> We could start up the hbase book using docbook format and the hbase book 
> would ride along with versions.
> As I see it -- and its a while since I've done this stuff so things may have 
> since changed -- in the way of an easy move to maven is our src/contrib 
> content.  Maven would have these as distinct projects pulling in their hbase 
> dependency or, if you wanted to take on the maven subproject notion, then, 
> hbase would be at same level in build as the contribs -- it would be a 
> subproject too just built before the others.
> Anyone interested in working on this issue?
