[jira] Created: (CASSANDRA-1151) For contrib modules that use Java, have a consistent build mechanism

For contrib modules that use Java, have a consistent build mechanism
--------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-1151
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1151
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Contrib
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Jeremy Hanna
            Assignee: Jeremy Hanna
            Priority: Minor


Contrib modules have a habit of periodically not working for some reason.  To some extent that's expected - they are optional contrib modules.  However, I think it's reasonable to at least have some way to perform a periodic sanity check on them if we can.

This improvement would make sure there is a consistent build mechanism - build.xml - for each of the contrib modules that use Java.  That way, there could be a hudson build perhaps nightly or weekly, that could inform the devs if the contrib modules are not even compiling.  It's not like it would be a huge priority to fix immediately, but they would at least be aware that changes in the code/config have broken a contrib module.

[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1151) For contrib modules that use Java, have a consistent build mechanism

Johan Oskarsson commented on CASSANDRA-1151:
--------------------------------------------

Still, it wouldn't hurt with a somewhat general build framework for them. If we could kick off a build of all java based contrib modules from the main build.xml that could be included in Hudson. That way we would at least know if a contrib is failing to build and can create a ticket. Hadoop has something like this and it has worked out quite well.

-------------------------------------------

OTOH the point of accepting those in-tree is to say, "this is of enough interest that we are willing to take some responsibility for maintaining this."

[jira] Resolved: (CASSANDRA-1151) For contrib modules that use Java, have a consistent build mechanism

Jeremy Hanna resolved CASSANDRA-1151.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

Contrib modules really are unofficial and should have their own stewards - those who contributed them in the first place.
