[jira] Created: (AVRO-320) improvements to avro java tools

improvements to avro java tools
-------------------------------

                 Key: AVRO-320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-320
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
            Reporter: Doug Cutting
            Assignee: Doug Cutting
             Fix For: 1.3.0


I'd like to make some improvements to Avro's java tools prior to the 1.3 release, in particular:
 - rename the jar from avroj.jar to avro-tools.jar.  the avroj name seemed good when this was a shell script, but, as a jar it should perhaps be named consistently with other jars.
 - fix the build to copy the jar file to the top-level dist directory, for inclusion in releases
 - make the help command print the version and a link to the apache license
 - include the Apache license and notice files in the jar

[jira] Resolved: (AVRO-320) improvements to avro java tools

Doug Cutting resolved AVRO-320.
-------------------------------

      Resolution: Fixed
    Hadoop Flags: [Reviewed]

Thanks for the review, Aaron!

I re-read the Apache license after I initially filed this, and including these in the jar is sufficient, but displaying the NOTICE.txt is also conventional: it's meant to be the spash-screen text.

I just committed this.

Aaron Kimball commented on AVRO-320:
------------------------------------

+1. Patch looks good. {{ant dist}} works.

I ran {{./avro-tools-1.2.0-dev.jar help}} which now prints:

{code}
Version 1.2.0-dev of Apache Avro

This product includes software developed at

But this is not a link to the license, as your description claims; maybe LICENSE.txt should be updated (in a separate patch?) to contain the actual link to http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
