Getting rid of dependencies in the source repo

[Roman Shaposhnik <rv...@apache.org>]

Hi!

while reviewing the RC I've noticed that
there are quite a few dependency jars
that are checked in directly into the
source repo. While not inconceivable,
I wonder whether using Maven/Ivy
for dependency management would
be an option for the project.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Roman.

Hi Roman,

Good catch!! the dependencies are in the master[1] and it does not have
maven/Ivy builds. But the focus of the development
is hadoop-eclipse-merge/hadoop-eclipse-merge-development[2] branch where we
have set up maven builds with tycho. There were issues in bringing the
hadoop-eclipse codebase to master so the idea is to release the
hadoop-eclipse-merge with MR, archive the current master and then bring the
released codebase functionality to master. Here is the complete discussion
thread for the haddop-eclipse-merge[3].
I guess when we reach at the point of archiving master-code we can do some
clean-up  and then push it.

regards,
Rahul
