Question about adding a new tool
Greetings fellow devs,
I've been doing some work on Hadoop going through the output of JACC
(Java API Compliance Checker). In the end, I ended up writing a Python
script (plus supporting code) to help me filter the html output. It was
suggested that I notify Yetus about it in case other people might find
it useful.
As it currently stands, I've got basic functionality working. Assuming
there is interest in adding this tool, I'd like to get the following
done before contributing it:
1) Refactor the code in a more plug-in style and add japicmp (Apache
licensed) as a compatible tool
2) Document the usage and code better
3) Add unit tests, mostly for tool and Python version compatibility
I'd appreciate any feedback or suggestions you may have.
-Ray

Take a look at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YETUS-445 .

having the ability to switch between JACC and japicmp would be great. It
would nicely deal with teh largest concern from YETUS-445, the hard
dependency on something with a category-x license.
