Make maven-eclipse-plugin use the spring project nature
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-8094
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8094
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Affects Versions: 0.23.0
Reporter: Harsh J
Assignee: Harsh J
If I want to have multiple versions of Apache Hadoop loaded into my Eclipse IDE
today (or any other IDE maybe), I'm supposed to do the following when
generating eclipse files, such that the version name is appended to the project
name and thereby resolves conflict in project names when I import another
version in:
{{mvn -Declipse.addVersionToProjectName=true eclipse:eclipse}}
But this does not work presently due to a lack of configuration in Apache
Hadoop, which https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-702 demands. The
problem being that though the project names are indeed named with version
suffixes, the "related project" name it carries for dependencies do not carry
the same suffix and therefore you have a broken import of projects errors
everywhere about 'dependent project <regularname> not found'.
The fix is as Carlo details on https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-702
and it works perfectly. I'll attach a patch adding in the same configuration
for Apache Hadoop so that the above mechanism is then possible.
