German Florez-Larrahondo created HADOOP-9771: ------------------------------------------------
Summary: Improve instructions for Eclipse with m2e plugin in http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/EclipseEnvironment Key: HADOOP-9771 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9771 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: documentation Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.0.5-alpha Environment: Cent OS 6.4 Reporter: German Florez-Larrahondo Priority: Minor The instructions for using Eclipse with Hadoop 2.0x or trunk seem a bit out of date. I recently setup Eclipse with the m2e plugin without major issues (in contrast, the wiki calls it a 'giant mess'). I think we should have instructions for both the m2e plugin and with more static mvn eclipse:eclipse option as in the current wiki. Below I add a raw log of the steps I took. If I get granted write access to this wiki page I could do a nice write-up of this if the team agrees with the updates (my wiki name is GermanFlorezLarrahondo) Regards Raw log of activities to compile Hadoop in Eclipse using m2e pluging (As of July 25 2013): -Using trunk (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk), Last Changed Date: 2013-07-24 10:00:50 -0400 (Wed, 24 Jul 2013) -first built by hand via CLI using mvn -o -X $ANT_OPTS clean package -Pdist,native,docs,src -DskipTests -Dtar -Follow most of the instructions in here http://blog.cloudera.com/blog/2013/05/how-to-configure-eclipse-for-hadoop-contributions/ -In particular, for a clean build the proper protocol buffers and avro autogenerated Java files must be linked to some of the Hadoop projects (via buid path/link source, adding patter **/*.java).
