Jesse Yates commented on HBASE-4336:
------------------------------------
@stack: yeah, I think that is a bit more reasonable. Now that I'm thinking a
little more about it, I think an hbase-common, hbase-security and hbase-core
packages would be a reasonable (and not overly consuming) step. Sets up the
division between things and eventually might lead to splits between client and
server (and maybe between RS and master?). I'll try to take a look this week at
getting something simpler up.

> Key: HBASE-4336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4336
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: build
> Reporter: Gary Helmling
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 0.96.0

>
> When we originally converted the build to maven we had a single "core" module
> defined, but later reverted this to a module-less build for the sake of
> simplicity.
> It now looks like it's time to re-address this, as we have an actual need for
> modules to:
> * provide a trimmed down "client" library that applications can make use of
> * more cleanly support building against different versions of Hadoop, in
> place of some of the reflection machinations currently required
> * incorporate the secure RPC engine that depends on some secure Hadoop classes
> I propose we start simply by refactoring into two initial modules:
> * core - common classes and utilities, and client-side code and interfaces
> * server - master and region server implementations and supporting code
> This would also lay the groundwork for incorporating the HBase security
> features that have been developed. Once the module structure is in place,
> security-related features could then be incorporated into a third module --
> "security" -- after normal review and approval. The security module could
> then depend on secure Hadoop, without modifying the dependencies of the rest
> of the HBase code.
