Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-6671:
--------------------------------------------

Glad to see people are interested in this.

Luke, thanks for the Eclipse info (I don't use Eclipse. I use IntelliJ, IntelliJ integrates nicely with Maven, you just open the POM as a project and you are  done).

JUnit execution should work fine if you first compile the testcases from Maven (running 'mvn test -DskipTests'), I do that trick for IntelliJ. And, if I'm not mistaken you should be able to configure the IDE to this automatically (or an IDE click).

> We are now able to publish hadoop artifacts to the maven repo successfully [ Hadoop-6382]
> Drawbacks with the current approach:
> * Use ivy for dependency management with ivy.xml
> * Use maven-ant-task for artifact publishing to the maven repository
> * pom files are not generated dynamically 
> To address this I propose we use maven to build hadoop-common, which would help us to manage dependencies, publish artifacts and have one single xml file(POM) for dependency management and artifact publishing.
> I would like to have a branch created to work on mavenizing  hadoop common.
