[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-2592) Specify main manifest attribute in flume tools jar

["Ashish Paliwal (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2592?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14282210#comment-14282210 ] 

Ashish Paliwal commented on FLUME-2592:
---------------------------------------

Looked at the code, tool can be run from flume-ng script. The help message needs to be fixed. Options are either we point it to use the flume-ng script or can leave it to run as standalone file by modifying pom.xml (painful with classpath settings and all).

[~hshreedharan]/[~roshan_naik] Suggestions on fixing this?
